Birdhouse Gourd Vines




They went wild while we were away!!

Pepper Progress









Coleus????

Lithrum


I cut the Lithrum back a month ago and although there are no blossoms, it sure looks nice.

One Pumpkin Survives



We returned after a two week hiatus to find the gardens just this side of 'out of control'. Although one of the two pumpkins has a few bites taken out of it, the other is HUGE and looking quite orange.

Tomato Progress



Over eight feet and counting!







Too bad the tomatoes have succumbed to blight in our absence. I will remove all the lower affected foliage and place it into plastic garbage bags. I will have to remove half the plants as well. I hope to remove their green tomatoes before all are diseased. Prunes!!
