Tomato Cuttings, New Beginnings



Hoping this limited effort of cobbling together what is readily available
to me. Essentials only a gardener would be able to cobble together.
 Some partially decomposed compost, fresh Spanish moss plucked
from the trees. This moss makes a great reflective ground cover to combat
our hot Florida winter sun from it's heat build up. I also covered the newly
planted cuttings with the moss, again to lessen the shock of transplanting
and shielding these sensitive cuttings from the hot Winter afternoon sun,
whose intensity is relative to it's state of transplanting. With buckets
of collected El Nino Aqua from the heavens above. Sure there may be
a garden hose in the picture, rarely used, which essentially makes it
out of the picture, sort of speak.

It's just a matter of weeks before these cuttings will acclimate and take
advantage of it's pampered surroundings and start another cycle of life.
