Latest Front Yard Fencerow Photos:

Atlantic Giant has succumbed to SVB, but some leading vines are still crawling along the front of the popcorn. Potato Silos have been harvested and the chickenwire towers removed. The California #5 Blackeyed peas turned out to be super vigorous. They love to sneak in between the fence to tangle up in the espalier fruit trees.

Bushel Gourd is taking over the fence row, and are fruiting:

This is an old thread, but I realized These pictures I posted in another thread would be a great way to complete it :wink:

We painted the bushel gourds and had colorful popcorn for fall decoration that year:

The gourds dried out well over the winter with occasional alcohol rub to keep down the mold.

Do you take the mango and avocado trees inside?
In winter how long can they stay in those pots?
Is it hard to grow rice?
