It's not too late for okra; it's the only thing I've found that
truly thrives in our August heat. Beautiful cream colored

Oh no, thanks to that last comment we'll soon see another Saturday

esculentus gone berserk and sliming those silly human pests ;-)

"When we got there, sheriff, the Parkins family was completely
gumbo'd. However, they needed a bit more salt to my taste."


*snicker* I'm going to grow some just for the flowers.
