Thread Name: BS: The September/Fall Garden
Subject: RE: BS: The September Garden
I found another volunteer canteloupe in the front lantana bed this evening. I think that makes about 10 total that one plant came up with through the summer, but it is the last, because the vine has completely died and almost disappeared. One fruit I picked a few days ago is as sweet as they ever get; this latest one was discovered at the last minute before all of the bugs moved in (a few had encroached on one end of it). It isn't as sweet as I expected, but it is almost fermented.

There are lots of baby geckos running around on the outside of the house.
