Food and drink

Up before 6. Coffee. Waning moon over head. By the time I was back with the dog, dawn was revealing a line of rain over ocean. Never made it to shore. It was a sunny, beautiful day. Watering everyone in by 7, following with fish and guano drench fairly soon after. It's been 2 weeks since everyone has been fed. I like the Fish Poop 9-6-2 fertilizer and so do the plants. It's gentle and it adds bacteria and organic matter to the soil rather than just jolting with some salts.

Sunny east wall. Loving the alocasia. Notice creeping fig upper left. Potato right (ish) corner showing a little purple/blue blossom
Sunny west. Notice jack fruit starting up wall next to newly started pot of plumeria (light blue pot lower right). The plumeria will grow 10' + . The bromeliade Achmea 'Dean' in front of bamboo is adding some real muscle to the scene.
