ORANGE TREES IN ALASKA?

Well there is one! lol Our g/f Kath has this one her mom planted years ago. It take up quite a bit of room in my plant area. It has never bore fruit. But it IS an orange tree! lol

These are part of the babies from the aloe plant Wayne had when I got here in 1999. It has been a real prolific mother.

Meet the mater twins! lol They outgrew the window and had to be put on the floor. They have since reached the ceiling again and there are maters on there!! I just hope they get bigger than cherry tomatoes this time! lol

The bell peppers took awhile to take off but they are producing nicely. The fruit is not as big as you get in the store becasue they are in planters instead of the root having all kinds of room to grow, but very sweet!!

These are the cucumber. Siince this pic was taken they having traveled up the trellace and wound around everything they can get those little fingers to grab. I had to have Wayne undo them from the christmas lights strung over the curtain rod.. an unruley bunch they are! They actually have 5 little cucumbers on them now!!

This pic is taken from inside in the livingroom. In the window sill there are celery waiting to go out, and several of the indoor only plants like the african violet. Outside you can see one of the gardens. Nothing abundant in this pic but there are plants in the buckets now! lol
