Night Watering


Since we were out all day and didn't return home until 10pm, I was a bit worried about the garden. So we traipsed up to the roof to water. I had never watered at night before and it was a bit tricky.

The plants all appeared happy though; standing up tall - they seemed to have grown inches since the morning. Jim snapped these photos as I made my rounds.

Hope I didn't miss any pots. As you can see the peas are on their last legs, I will have to wait until it cools down at the end of the summer to plant some more.


Right now we probably have at least 100 green tomatoes. Can't wait for them to ripen.


In the night shots you can see the Empire State Building in the background, I know it is totally hokey but I imagine it watching over the garden.

How does your garden grow ...



Water towers gaze
Clean laundry blows in the sun
Zucchinis blossom

It would be so great if every New York City rooftop was covered with fruits and vegetables, blooming trees, birds, bees and laundry drying in the sun.
We can all imagine.
