Overview of the garden, everything is coming along nice and neat!

The tomato plants are growing like weeds and I really need to get out their with cages.

The squash is lush and expanding daily. You can see the pumpkin crawling towards the neighbor's yard as well.

Squash flowers! Hopefully they'll produce fruit this year!

My first jalapeño peppers! Aren't they adorable?

Cayenne pepper, still green!

My two frost-surviving pea plants. They've produced approximately 6 peapods already, which is impressive given their pathetic little lives there. Poor guys.

The left hand side of the garden...

The center of the garden... Peppers, plus two surviving pea plants in the center. The lush green plants in the front row are going to be straw flowers - another survivor from my seedlings.

The tomato end of the garden... Peppers are peeking up and the tomatoes are becoming entangled with each other!

Lush and purple crystal palace something..

My quickly expanding squash and pumpkin plants.

Squash blossom!

Blossoms on my tomato plants!

A pepper plant.

I transplanted several of the tomato-weeds into the spot where the beets were originally going to be.

The radishes confuse me. They're flowering, but there were only like 1-2 marble sized radishes in there. Nothing more. The rest were just normal skinny roots. So either I didn't thin them out enough, making it difficult for them to get enough nutrients, or they suck. I vote to blame the radishes, it couldn't possibly be me.

Happy little herbs, growing away. This year I'm going to be good about plucking off the flowers.

Mint-gone-wild!

My weeds are what?

Weekly garden overview...










Tomato blossoms

So what are these little weeds lining the fence...?

Tomato plants! What?!

At the end of last season, I tilled all of the extra tomatoes into the soil, not thinking that they would not only survive the winter, but grow on their own once the spring came...

They're everywhere, and some are growing crazy big already! I just can't bring myself to weed them out!

Peppers and peas.

Pepper blossom!

Pea blossom!



Radish nub!


Marigolds in bloom

Calendula

I apologize for the night shots, but I get in so late that I have to water before bed and the sun has already gone down. I added several flowers that had been waiting on planting..
