It has been awhile since I last posted and things have really changed in the garden. This is most of the garden showing, the onions, beans, carrots,lettuce, tomatoes. We have been eating green beans for couple of weeks, the lettuce is pretty much done as it has gotten hot and it is now bitter tasting. I will pull it and wait till Aug and plant another crop to have into the fall. The carrots are looking great.
My little pumpkins are growing this is one of the bigger ones, it is cantaloupe sized. Just hope I get a few as I have only 3 frozen containers of pumpkin left.
Ahhh the tomatoes!!! I will have ripe tomatoes by mid week, I can almost taste the BLT's , fresh sliced tomatoes with basil and mozzarella. The two big plants that I purchased from Earl May are huge,I did not get them in tomato cages, but I did put dry grass clippings under them to help hold down the weeds and to hold the moisture in the ground. The little mail order tomatoes are actually coming along nicely, they all have blooms.
These are pictures of the flowers by the front walk, so pretty, the hostas are huge. They will need to be thinned out next year for sure. Need to find some one who wants some hostas.
I think I will try and cut some of the white flowers to dry and see if I can keep them over the winter,as a dry bouquet.
