Dotson's 2018 Garden in Spartanburg, SC

[Spartanburg123]

A few garden pics from today, July 8, 2018. In order are: Overhead view, DLH, Karma Pink, GGWT fruit, GGWT plant, Paul Robeson, Post Office Spoonful, and Aker's West Virginia. The production monsters this year are GGWT and Paul Robeson- this plant just continues to pump out delicious fruit, even in 90+ degrees. My one DLH plant is not doing well this year, it started out rather sickly but appears to be overcoming it. Karma Pink is highly productive, and exhibits leaf curl/droopy look no matter how much water it gets. The fruit are quite tasty in salads! P.O.S. is starting to take off with the highly branched, fractal growth tendency that it has. Finally, Aker's WV is a really impressive plant, with about 10 very large ribbed fruit not too far from ripening. It has a stout and vertical growth habit, and does not take off like many other vining types.

Not shown is Not Purple Strawberry (medium production), Kellogg's Breakfast (started late), and Lucky Cross (recovering from an illness). Of the three Stick plants I had, two died, and the third is hanging on for dear life.
