Fruit for roof gardens


The last of the black raspberries.


Currants!


See-through currants...I think currants are constructed perfectly. They are like earrings. I'd wear them if I could. A cluster of pearls, please.


The second strawberry crop is far fatter than the first.


And the figs are on their way. The Gowanus Nursery has some very nice little fig trees at the moment.

  2. Do you use compost tea for your roof garden? I've started using it for my container plants and the results have been excellent.
