To update my green post, container eggplant gardening has been a major success!
I plucked an additional one off yesterday, there are still more not quite ready yet, plus more flowers on top of that. I know some of you guys have major veggie gardens going, and just seeing these guys grow is such a thrill! I feel like a proud parent! Plus the excitement of seeing the process? And cooking food which i grew? I'd say that's 2.99 well spent! Hopefully i can find one next year, too.

Lest we forget big arse pepper, or he'll get a complex. He's all alone thus far, but it's still early.

That's awesome! I didn't know eggplants would do so well in containers.

That looks great! Happy for you and the eggplants are such a good size! Wow, encouraging for us container gardeners.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha, I died laughing at the opening line. I was like, "Wait, did I read that right?!" Good for you. I need to get on the container gardening thing. Thanks for the inspiration. Thanks for linking up, girl!
ReplyDeleteYour eggplants and peppers look great! Up North, my butternut squash (also in containers) are just forming the first signs of "baby squash." It'll be a while before I can enjoy anything other than fresh basil from my containers!
ReplyDeleteWow, good job with the eggplant! I wish I was that good at growing vegetables but I'm the kinda girl that needs plants that I can put in the ground and forget about because usually thats what I do...forget about them! Good luck with the container garden. Stopping by from New Friend Friday

Love your opening!! too funny. Your vegies look great. Growing your own vegies and fruit is so rewarding, isn't it?

Congrats - your eggplant look delish! And so many of them too!
ReplyDeleteThey look wonderful! If I could just keep the critters out, I would love to try these.
ReplyDeleteI love that Im not the only one that takes photos of their veggies! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteFabulous! I just saw your pictures on a link party. As a first year veggie gardener with no eggplants yet, you give me hope!
ReplyDeleteOh wow! Those eggplants are beauties. They were probably very yummy. Much better than store bought, no?
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting us for our Anything Related party!
