Tomatoes and Chilly

Tomatoes have finally arrived in our garden on couple of plants. Rest of them have flowers on them and more should arrive soon. It is the Podland Pink variety from the Department of Horticulture. We had no idea what the stuff was till we saw some pictures at another blog.

The Ladies' Finger plants are fighting back and the new ones look very healthy and reminding us on what should have been if the pests hadn't attacked the plants. The new leaves also look very good. We kind of hurried in planting multiple plants in a single pot which seems pretty cramped and a very bad idea as well.

The chillies are out as well and in good condition as well. Not sure what's going on inside the carrot and onion plants. Onion plant seems pretty healthy and the carrots are catching up as well.

We also bought some flowering plants with flowers in it from Lalbagh to provide some variety and I guess it also helps keep the pests away from the vegetable plants. There is also the traditional thulsi plant in the lot, with its medicinal value. But you miss the excitement of seed starting and the discovery of the buds in the plants. But flowers are flowers nevertheless!

All of a sudden there are lots of things happening and hopefully we should be able to keep them pest free and have a good harvest soon!
