Our container garden is faltering…weeks of 100-plus degree heat are taking a toll, having nearly killed off two tomato plants. We lost a bell pepper yesterday, and at least one of my nearly ripe Lipstick sweet peppers is dead.
On the plus side, we got about 20 minutes of blessed rain last night, thank the Lord, the first in several weeks. One of my sweet peppers should be ready to pick tonight. My Czech hot pepper plant has grown a small pepper too. We have gotten over a dozen cherry tomatoes from the third tomato plant and have been tossing those into salads.
