Corn and Tomatoes

Things are still progressing.

The corn is getting taller.

We now have two tomatoes instead of one. (The second, smaller one is slightly down and to the right of the bigger one.)

And there are more tomato blossoms on the plant.

I gave Andy a little paintbrush, so he is pollinating the flowers.

    Yayyy!
    this is wonderful.
    I wonder if the corn will get as high as an elephant’s eye? like in the song!

      It better not! The glass roof there isn’t that high off the ground, and we picked the corn because the stalks were shorter than most.

    This is so much fun to watch…now I am really getting curious about the corn.

    We are so enjoying seeing all the growing happening there, and at the same time, we are wishing we had a garden in our yard to keep us stocked with fresh veggies.

  5. This post makes me realize I can’t wait for fresh tomatoes and corn too!!

      Some of them. On the other hand, only one carrot seed germinated and started to grow. The trick is to sow a lot of seeds and see what comes up.

    The corn and tomatoes look fantastic. Just looking at the tomato plant makes me want a tomato sandwich 🙂
