I just ventured out to the garden. I picked tomatoes and came back in. My peppers looked fantastic 2 days ago. The red are now rotting and they haven’t even begun to turn. I have to pick beans but they’ll have to wait until morning. I might go back out later and attempt the broccoli. Ugh!

What sort of peppers are they DMC? Too bad to lose them now.

We have orange, green, yellow, red, and jalapeño. Funny it’s only affecting the red. There are so many peppers.

Strange that it's the red only. But your Marigolds look terrific!

Thank you! I love Marigolds. I wish I could find the jumbo white ones again. These are not the standard size. They are more like a bush with big flowers.

I Googled and found some seeds online. Maybe you could try that??? I just Googled “jumbo white marigolds” and it popped up. But idk if you wanna start from seed? And they have different shades, some aren’t pure white. But pretty close.

Have you ever saved the seed from Marigolds and replanted them the following year? I've done that several times and had pretty good luck.

Marigolds are my favorites, but I cannot grow them. My youngest has a tattoo of a marigold with the word mom.

I'm pretty sure that it was just an excuse to get another tattoo. But he is a really good son.
