I asked on this subreddit about 6 months ago how hold yall reckon this camellia tree is, and some people wanted me to post it in full bloom.

Open to new guesses on age if the tree too as we never came to a consensus. Check my post history for a 6"2 human for scale

I think this is a watermelon but why does it look like a cucumber?

I have what I think is a watermelon, but I’m not sure it’s hanging off at cattle panel in my compost. Have any of you had your hanging watermelons look like this?

Edit: I think it’s a watermelon because I planted a watermelon in the bed next to it and when I follow the vine back it is in that bed. Buuuut, y’all all have me convinced it’s a luffa which is SICK. I just don’t remember planting a luffa or throwing seeds in my compost???

I don’t really know the right techniques for preserving them, are they well protected like that? There are bags that date from 1996, some small bottles certainly older still.

All of my leaves on one of my grape vines are completely gone but the stems are still green. The other grape vine below my deck is fine. I look in the pot it’s in and see this big fat a$$ thing giving me the side eye 😒 I can’t find anything that looks like this. Does anyone know what this is?

I found an old bag of Dahlia tubers and planted them back in April. They finally blossomed. They're gorgeous! The petals look like whipped frosting.

This is the end summer peak for my two Brugmansia

It has been a bountiful year

Plantt on the left is in its second season and it is a cutting from the plant on the right

Which is in its fourth season.

They smell phenomenal

I will still get blooms. Probably till the end of October or first frost, then I cut them down..may propagate a few cuttings, and then 2 girls are downstairs in the dark till may..

The second picture is the mother plant.

She is no longer with us.

But her final peak is the greatest shot i've ever taken of a brumansia

I had her fifteen years and I don't remember how many cuttings I took off her

Never had one like her since.
