Decided to dig a few hills to see the tater crop. Looks good to me!

A few strange things this year. Only one pair of potato bugs early. No frost last winter?

Volunteer kale, I think, killed my tater plants while I was away for two weeks.

Tomatoes without something unexpected look real good.

Lopes are great.

I must deter skunk somehow.

A couple bunnies and a few deer tracks.

A few clipped blossoms etc. I think I will try a radio AM talk show at night
iF I get attacked. If nothing else the fauna will be fat and know all about the POTUS.

The woods are my garden as well, I walk a 3 mile trail through them 3 times a week. I have been eating blackberries, watching the green muscadines develop and keeping tabs on a pretty good paw-paw crop down by the river.

Most of the walkers are city folk that will walk over a bounty of muscadines and paw-paws on the ground and not have a clue what they are.

I planted two pawpaws years ago. Now they are copses of pawpaw that bloom every spring but I've never seen fruit. I've heard that blow flies are their pollinators but I can't make myself go out looking for road kill to assist...plus my new dog would love it if I put roadkill under them.

I hate to think off it at my age Pat but it could be sex.
I am pretty sure there are male/female trees. Your trees maybe
just one gender
