The rest of the mess

When they arrived, I wasn't sure if my new bananas would even survive...now, I've had to repot and move one out of the greenhouse (it's since lost a fair bit of its color because it's not full sun there, but still looks good) and the others will soon follow

The yard itself has also begun offering a plethora of edible things, from 6 pounds of chokecherries that I turned into syrup

To rosehips (which I found out, if you boil to make tea and then do not sweeten...tastes like tomato)

Edible flower (I need to put with the other violets in the front yard, and pick more often)
