Well, rain has already been very rich just this past month!

Greenhouse plants get hand watered...

I have three tomatoe vines in greenhouse #3 that have done well all
winter. I planted them in there last November when they were itty bitty.
They have very lush foliage and are blooming now but have not set yet. I
need to hand-fertilize the flowers at the right stage.

When the weather is more reliably warm, I'll leave the door flap open to
allow pollinating insects in there.

The aloe in that same house is also throwing bloom stalks! Cool.....
We've never had aloe bloom before!
