This Spring has been great for the garden - just the right mix of warm sunny days and cooler rainy days. We are well out of the risk for frost. Because of the weather, the compost, and maybe the extra space everything has with the new beds, the plants are further along than last year. This is shaping up to be a good season!
I have noticed the bugs are starting to come out. I've spotted a few aphids on the tomatoes but nothing to be too concerned about. There also is no sign of the flea beetles on the eggplant - so far.
Here are a a few highlights:
Two deep purple/black tomatoes. I think the fruit on these plants are going to be smaller than I expected - around 2-3"
Bulgarian Carrot Pepper, this is the smaller of the two already on the plant.
First Green Zebra Tomato is on its way.
Two little zucchinis. Nothing on the yellow squash yet.
Overview
The zucchini and yellow squash.
The radishes and lettuce on the left, a row each of spinach and carrots, and then the eggplant and a few of the pepper plants.
Left to right: Old German, Indigo Rose, Black Krim, Goldie Yellow Tomatoes. The Grape tomatoe is in the planter along the fence.
These are the plants from seeds: the Green Zebra on the left, and the other three are the Polverini Tomatoes. The Polverini Tomatoes are several inches taller than the rest.
My herbs: Basil, Lime Basil, Purple Basil, Rosemary, Sage, Mace, Thyme, Cilantro, and Chives. The Oregano is doing great too, but its not in the picture.
Bell Peppers started from seeds. All looking full and healthy.
Bush beans on the ends, and pole beans along the trellis
More bush beans on the ends and cucumbers in the middle along the trellis. Amish Rob Pickle cucs and Murphy's big boys.
Finally the hot peppers. From left to right: Bulgarian Carrot, Hades Hot, Mystery Pepper, and the Shishitos.
