Garden update

 

     We’ve had enough rain to get the veggies and melons off to a great start.  I have tiny peppers on most of the pepper plants.  The tomato plants all have flowers now.  I have to go out and find another sugar baby water melon plant because I foolishly bought only one and should have purchased two.  The one I have is growing like crazy but without another to cross-pollinate I doubt I’ll get any fruit.

     The eggplant plants have tripled in size but no flowers yet.  I finally have dill growing tall and happy without the nasty earwigs chewing the plant down to the roots this time.  Planting it in the pot worked well.  The squash plants are loaded with flowers and a couple of them have teensy squash on them.  The bush cucumber has flowers but no sign of any cukes yet.  I’m not very certain that the plant was marked correctly because the plant certainly isn’t a bush.

     G gave me some cannas the other day and I planted them.  I hope they come up.  The black elephant ears are beginning to look good.  The ones in the pot are bigger than the ones in the garden.
