The Garden


Cucumbers- a few Japanese/English (long and skinny),
a few Persian (small and cute)

Only teeny-tiny infant cucumbers so far

Tomatoes- getting some fruit on the vine, but nothing close to red yet

Sunflowers are doing well- they finally opened last week when
Sally came to town, bringing her sunshine

Expanded the garden to the berm this year- all an experiment.
Got 3 zucchini already, but slow to produce more

The watermelons were a surprise for Fred- he didn't know what kind of plants they were until the fruit started to grow. They're golf ball sized so far, and getting measurably larger each day.
