After around 6 months, we believe it is about time to see at least a couple of asparagus shoots. Sure enough, the shoots are blossoming and will soon be part of our salads and daily meal!
Aug. 31 2012 Blue Moon over Port Saint Lucie, Florida. The next Blue Moon will be in 2015. Let’s all pray that we will still be around to witness and take pictures…
