Inside the Funny Looking Greenhouse.

Near the door of the greenhouse on one side we have 3 Roma tomato plants, and two Okra plants. We've been getting produce from both.

Opposite the tomatoes, and up on benches, is a bunch of sweet basil. We use a lot of it, and so we grow plenty.

Here a few of the Broccoli plants can be seen, plus a few eggplant behind them, and some Oregon Spring tomato plants. Basically all of these are seedlings that were started indoors in early spring, and which were excess for the garden. We potted them up in the greenhouse to see how they would do. So far, they seem to like it.

Around the corner, there are a bunch of hot pepper plants. Evidently hot peppers get even hotter if grown in a really hot environment. This seems to be the case. The serrano peppers grown in here are HOT!.

We have got lots of other stuff going in here too, more since these pictures were taken in late August. It's getting so packed with stuff that it is hard to move around!

New items in the greenhouse are a tomato called Whippersnapper, a mini eggplant variety, 2 more types of sweet pepper, and a lot more okra plants. We're going to see just how far into winter we can go and still have things do well.

The manufacturer of the greenhouse claims it can go all winter with only a small amount of auxiliary heat. We'll have to see...
