Nice photo Willi.

We definitely are not having any issues with the cold here. Temps
are bumping up against the 90° mark every day already. The spring
garden is mostly burned up from the sun. A few of the heat tolerant
broccolli plants are not quite ready and I left a few collard plants
growing. Although collards prefer cool weather and are somewhat tough
when eaten this time of year.

The cherry and grape tomatoes are still producing nicely. I take a
small bag of them to work every second or third day. They too will
stop producing before too much longer due to the heat. The plants will
grow like weeds if I keep watering them, but no tomatoes will form.
Just too hot for the flowers to pollinate.

Beautiful. I love peonies but have absolutely no luck with them.

Thanks! I've been reading once in another garden forum that magnesium was essential for peonies. Now I give them some from time to time (measured in years). Before that the leaves used to get black spots and dry up very soon after the blooming season. They look much healthier now and stay longer green. W
