See How My Garden Grows – A Summer Series

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

Well, the ongoing battle with the sun is still waging. I managed to figure out a way to shield my veggies from the sun, but I do not know how well it is working. Anyway, the plants seem to be thriving, just not bearing. so here are the latest results.

My zucchini and asparagus want to choke off everything else by attaching themselves to the other plants in my garden. I. Don’t. Think. So. So, I inserted a few bean poles and as you can see. the asparagus immediately attached their sinewy feelers to the pole. The zucchinis, not so much. Their newest strategy it so go under the cucumbers. Sneaky.

Corvette informed me about this bell pepper. How did I miss it?

Tomatoes are a nice shade of red. Since they are Beefsteak, I hope they will get larger.

The beans are giving it their best shot.

Of course, Lucie, my big red dog is oh so helpful.

Here is another cucumber. Can’t find the three from last week. I am afraid I will wake up one morning and the cucumbers will have taken over the whole yard!

Lastly, a shot of my corn. Tried to look at it mom, but I was not succesful, just hoping for the best.

If you are looking for me, I will be the one doing the rain dance, washing my car multiple times and generally begging the gods for rain.

At least this sunflower is happy.
