The garden blooms!

06:18 PM, Tuesday, June 12, 2007 .. 3 comments .. Link

I was looking at pictures of Trixi's garden on Homestead in the Making,and  I realized I've never really posted much about our vegetable garden.

This is our garden - or at least the half of it we could get in the photo.

Here's what we are growing:

Three varieties of tomatoes - Best Boy, Mountain Spring and Roma

Yellow Squash - can't remember if it's a straight neck or crooked neck variety

pickling cucumbers

okra - I can't stand okra but hubby loves it

Two vareities of green peppers - I can't remember what they are called off the top of my head

green onions

cantaloupe (did I spell that right?)

zuchinni (this probably isn't spelled correctly, either)

 

Here's some photos:

Pickling Cucumbers - the bloom is just to the left of a growing cucumber

 

Here are some tiny green peppers - a cucumber is poking through the fence in the background

And here are some green beans - the only thing big enough to pick yet!

Your garden is beautiful! Hope you enjoy all the goodies once they are ripe enough to pick and eat.
Take Care
