I have always liked to fill my apartment with plants, so I was very upset when an infestation of flies caused me to throw away every plant but one. Our place seemed so empty for so long. Once we were rid of the flies, we decided to try again. This time we started from scratch, planting the seeds ourselves. We managed to kill some sprouts, and then tried again. I would like to share our progress with Charlotte and Alexander since they are not here to see the plants themselves.
Charlotte germinated a lima bean in science class, planted it, and then brought it home to be replanted. It was just barely starting to flower when we left for Cleveland. Now we have several bean pods!


Our tomato plants are growing taller.


Our marigolds have flowered.

I hope we can keep the flies away so that we can continue to let our garden flourish!
