This photo was taken the other day. I send it to my sister, Charmaine via Viber in Austrlia. As I said, I am so excited that I had to share it.
The following day, both were turning red. I just can't believe this. I fooled the gophers this year again (Read about last year here.) I was really happy that I sent this photo via text message to my friend, Tita Su who's in Las Vegas, and to the young lady who's traveling around America with the rest of the Korea-America International Student Conference (KASC) delegates.
All four strawberry plants in four different pots are bearing fruits now. I am watching them like a hawk. I don't want the gophers to harvest them before we do.
This year, what are new in my backyard are four strawberry plants, a pot of spring onion and two pots of tomatoes. Hopefully, the mister and I can find time to fix our yard and have a permanent garden bed for more fresh harvests of herbs, fruits, vegetables and other greeneries in the future.

To do list in mine. I am sure strawberries will not grow in Bkk as it is hot! I like the pots and the strawberries and plants hanging from them are exciting to see.
fresh strawberries right in your own backyard.....
now about the gophers, never seen one before. i guess living in the big city, the equivalent of gophers would be rats....and big ones :)
Maybe it will since strawberries bear fruits in the summer here (from 80F to 100F or a little more pa minsan).
I love collecting weird looking pots. :)
I had a fish pot but nasira during the harsh winter. I should've transferred it somewhere indoor. That's a lesson I learned last winter. Sayang talaga 'yong paso na 'yon.
Hahaha. Gophers and rats are cousins, but what's different with gophers is that their droppings are as big as dogs'. Ang laki. So kainis when they leave big ones in our backyard.
I would love to plant strawberries but the weather will be too hot.
I could try planting. I like different pots as well but because I am always into order and symmetry, all my pots are similar but in different sizes. I am done with two parts of the garden and will continue to do so during this summer break. Good thing we have some rain this week as I am so hot doing the landscaping. I will be posting them soon.
