A week of firsts!

First cabbage harvested, first peppers and tomatoes appearing, and a surprise first sunflower. They don't normally bloom until late summer!

:(

The death of the Fig Tree That Ate Stafford County, Virginia. :(

Photobucket

The roots were getting into the septic system...a big no-no.

Mom kept some cuttings- hopefully they will become baby fig trees!

2009 was a bad year for FTTASC,V- almost no figs. Some of the branches were dying.

Son of the Fig Tree That Ate Stafford County is alive and well.
