Abutilon and Nasturtium

Pea blossom, nasturtium, tomatoes

I rarely have peas reach maturity because the cats gobble the blossoms. Here is one that is beyond their reach.

The edges of the nasturtium have some sort of optical artifact that produces a purple tint in the image.

Here are two of the three trays of up-potted tomatoes and peppers. It remains to be determined whether I have provided enough protection from overnight chill. In addition to the tall plastic lids on the trays, shown here, I put a cardboard box over the top of each tray.
