I’m pleased to say that all the tomato plants I put in have tripled in size and the plum tomatoes have blossoms.  All of the pepper plants are growing tall and are loaded with flowers.  This is the first time I’ve planted dill that the danged earwigs didn’t eat it to the roots within days.  I guess planting it in a pot was the secret.  The fennel plant looks good too.

     There’s a lovely flower blooming on the patty pan squash and there are other buds a plenty.  The sugar-baby watermelon vine has quadrupled in size and I do believe that also has buds.  The acorn squash, the cucumber, and the cantaloupe are growing fast no buds yet but they’ll get there.

     I don’t see any change in the lemon grass but at least it’s alive.  I planted half of my black elephant ears in the pond garden and half in a pot.  The ones in the pot are growing faster. 

     All of the new iris I planted are doing well and so are the other flowers.  My oriental lilies are blooming.  The stargazers are getting tall and have plenty of buds.  I have a ton of coreopsis even after giving a bunch away to other gardeners along with some other iris I had to split.  The day lilies have started to bloom.  I took some pictures but have to download them.
