No, we don't live in Texas where everything is supposedly bigger than normal, but we did our part this year and Texas might have something to envy.
This is one of our blackberries. I put it next to a "C" battery so you can see the size comparison. Our 3-berry jam is much the better because of them.

These are my hibiscus flowers and you wouldn't be able to judge their size if I had just taken a photo, but when placed next to beautiful faces, you can tell that they are bigger than dinner plates. My granddaughter Isabelle and daughter Amy are my models.

That is pretty amazing! Hibiscus are my favorite flowers, but pretty hard to grow in Montana. I had one given to me when I had cancer and I nursed it along indoors for a couple of years, but it eventually withered and died. (Better the plant than me) LOL. That was a rather sick attempt at black humor.

Those are huge flowers! The berries make my mouth water just looking at them!

Do you just hook up an IV filled with Miracle Grow to all your plants?
