Squah named Seymore

When I first saw the squash seedings coming up, I thought I had planted squash seeds in the same row as my cucumbers.  Soon I realized this is the "super" squash plant we grew last year, reseeding itself.  The squash is a light yellow, but pretty tasty.  The huge plants shade out all the weeds, and it appears the little cucumbers are climbing their way out.  Search for squash I even found green beans growing under the canopy.

Lettuce and Radish

Lettuce made it through the heat last week without getting bitter!  Radish have not done so well, but maybe rain will fix that.  Same goes for onions.  Peas are starting to bloom and strawberries turn red.  I got in the winter squash seeds and some flower seeds before the rain started today. 

Greens

Lettuce with radish, pak choi, and tatsoi harvesting going on.  Not shown is the asparagus.  We have had about 5 meals of asparagus.  

May Plantings

Bean Field

Last weekend, May 10th, David planted this bean field:  Lima, green, red, black, white and pinto.  I planted seeds in the upper garden of basil, cucumber, okra, summer squash, along with my Dutch cabbage seedlings.  Now I sit here listening to the rain and I am a happy gardener.  Peas should make and the strawberries are coming on!
