~Summer Squash
~Zucchini
~Watermelon
~Peas
~Cantaloupe
~Pumpkins
~Fennel
~Okra
Wow! I didn’t
realize how much we actually planted until I wrote it down! Our raspberries are coming in nicely
and I am starting to think that we need to plant a different strawberry plant
next year, as we only have a few plants with fruit (but squirrels or rabbits
always eat them before I get to them anyways).
No sprouts from the seeds yet but I’m hoping to see some in the next 4-5
days. Our seedlings are
acclimating well.
I wish we had put in a watering system but maybe that will be next year’s
project for the garden.
Our peonies have popped and instead of having them fall to
the ground outside, I cut a few stems and made an arrangement for our
kitchen!
I also noticed this amazing rainbow while I was trying to get some pictures of the newly planted veggies. The pictures really do not do this rainbow justice; I'm pretty sure this was the most amazing one I have ever seen. It was almost turning into a quadruple rainbow.
We have ONE whole peach growing on our peach tree! I’m actually pretty surprised we have
the one due to that May 1st snow storm. I was noticing a lot of ants crawling around that tree about
2 weeks ago but when we got home from our trip, I found all these little
ladybugs instead… and no more ants!
I love being outside but with the temps soaring so early this year, I'm not quite sure how much I will be able to soak up the sun. At least there are early mornings and late nights that I can appreciate!
Happy Gardening!
