This is what my garden looks like at the end of November.

Yes, the tomatoes are still alive, as are the peppers in the Topsey Turveys, and as you can see the broccoli is loving the cold weather. Left alone they are in full bloom and still producing more bunches of blossoms. My petunias are still alive, though looking a bit scraggly as well and my daughter’s geranium that she rescued from the Walmart garden center. (It was a horribly pitiful thing when she picked it. Jason was sure it was going to die.)

This is pretty much par for the course in our yard, which explains why we might be mowing our lawn in December.
