Shadow Shot Sunday - Seedling sprout

In the Ansonia Uplands, facing ESE

Along the garage, facing WNW

Shadow Shot Sunday 2 is back, and we look for shadows in as many places as possible - there is no telling where they may jump up at us...last Friday, my very old friend Mike arrived to pot tomatoes, peppers and more for us. Given my lack of mobility, it is a project that upon harvesting is much appreciated by those in our household (that is, all four of us :)

The side of the house by the garage is sunny all day in the summer - the place to grow sun ready plants like tomatoes and peppers. This year we are using 18-gallon (67 liter) storage containers purchased at the local Lowes store in Derby, With a blend of moisture trapping peat moss, topsoil and mulch, the summer salad will arrive soon...

A pot of basil and a smiling worm...

Peppers

Basil, a variety of peppers, lettuce and butternut squash were also potted. We know the sunny items will grow, it may be a bit warm for the lettuce and the vine-y squash may not take - bit that summer salad of tomato, mozzarella and basil will taste great in August and I hope to stuff the cubanelles around the same time...the shadows can be harvested now! Organic or not, shadows are great - so see the world of shadowy art at SSS2
