And houseplants are not allowed.<br /><br />Lemon cukes are round and yellow and do, in fact, have a slight lemony taste/fragrance. I like them way better than the regular old version. Aside from the one lone cuke I harvested, I'm seeing them quite a bit at local farmers markets.bermtopiahttp://bermtopia.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5075873308681957542.post-68566165143745402372013-08-12T09:28:29.279-07:002013-08-12T09:28:29.279-07:00I am so embracing the "hole in the sun" ...I am so embracing the "hole in the sun" theory.

One of the reasons we sold our house in the suburbs and moved to an apartment in the city is that neither of us had the inclination nor the ability to garden. It was strictly Darwinian in our household, even for indoor plants. If you could survive on benign neglect you could stay. We no longer have any houseplants. If houseplantdom depended on us for survival, no one would have any houseplants. They would be extinct.<br />PS: What's a lemon cucumber? It sounds more exciting than a cucumber cucumber.Suzanne Fluhr https://www.blogger.com/profile/15164389928331501665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5075873308681957542.post-26733919415280321502013-08-11T08:48:28.100-07:002013-08-11T08:48:28.100-07:00I always enjoy your observations on growing veggie...I always enjoy your observations on growing veggies. If it's any solace to you, I have all flowers and no yellow squash and no cucumbers and only a handful of green beans so far this summer. The radishes didn't even come up in the first planting and look spindly in the second planting. I do have many green tomatoes and the beginning pods of chile peppers. Hope remains...there is still more than a month left in the growing season! I blame it all on <a href="http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/08/130806171645.htm" rel="nofollow">the hole in he sun</a>.
