Channeling Sophie's Garden

Carol's garden is in Port Hope MI, in a rural, lakeside community. She has lots of space and expertise. Laura' garden is located in Centralia WA, in a small suburban yard challenged by access to sun and space. Debbie's garden is in Deckerville MI, in a smaller rural yard, where rules are ignored.

Each of us is applying what we learned at at our mother's and grandmother's knees in space once owned by Sophie Mayer Birg Harter on Rangeline Road. Sophie immigrated to Detroit in 1908 from Heufeld, a once German (Donauschwaben) community of Hungary. Her hope lives on.

Here come the potato flowers!

Debbie says her potatoes have gown wild; Carol, same. And the towers, well one look at the potate project document their growth.

But does this foilage transfer into potato yeild?  That's the next part of this story - coming soon.

  1. I have noticed on past years good top production does not always mean good tubers, it will be interesting to see what you see.
