Spring is Here in South Florida

So, these are my first blooms on the blueberry bushes. I've collected a few different varieties over the last two years. I've got sharp, misty, and Sunshine and they are all southern highbush that should thrive here in South Florida. They don't look like they're thriving though.

Above: blueberry blossoms. The southern highbush needs 150 chill hours to set fruit.


Here's the one tomato plant that's done well in the garden. Usually, my tomatoes get leaf curl or the fruit cracks when we get a lot of rain. these still looks perfect though...we'll see.
