Looking up into a young American Chestnut tree:
Chestnut trees have good growth, but there is always a risk of Chestnut Blight killing my 100% American Chestnuts. I also have Chinese and Hybrid Chestnut trees started.
Red Cedar Post
I was taking out an old fence and when I took out this post, saw that it was a Cedar post.
It had lasted many decades and has the strong Cedar smell and color.
Pumpkin Tree
Potato Harvest
The good rainfall this year helped create a large harvest of potatoes.
Now I wished I liked them more.
Kiwano Design
Kiwano, also known as Horned Melons, have an attractive pattern to their fruit.
This fruit needs a longer season, as ripe fruit will be orange, but they are green here when the fall freezes come.
Color Segregation
It looked like the Guinea Fowl separated on the roost by their color.
October Sunset
There were plenty of lively sunsets this October.
Hit Again
Last year a young Black Locust trunk was rubbed by a buck, Black Locust Deer Rub.
This year the tree was hit again.
Pumpkin Lineup
A good lineup of the various Pumpkins and Squash that bore fruit this year:
Asiatic Dayflower
Asiatic Dayflower is a self-seeding annual plant that has been slowly spreading here.
I read that this plant is edible, though I haven’t tried it yet.
