It's a Jungle Out There!

The tomatoes aren't the only thing thriving in the backyard. I dread having to dig out all these.

Of course, we also seem to have a bumper crop of compost wizards...

Taking Over

It's been so long since the guys have been here to work that morning glory has taken over the entire backyard. We didn't plant it, we don't water it and damned if we know where it came from. And yet it thrives, and thrives and thrives. I have to fight to keep it out of the back vegetable patch and that's about all I have the energy to do with it.

Why can't my pepper plants be such enthusiastic growers?
