What have you done today in the Garden?

Ta Orieti

Picked a bit of celery too, not really grown this before.

 

Love crunchy celery with cream cheese ...yum!

 

Tetters turns it into something, I think it's called Mirepois?

 

Oh ok..have to Google that.

 

Oooooh !! Is Tetters going to make some jam ?.

 

It is very hot and steamy here.

The ginger loves this weather and is doing well. I have been nibbling on blueberries lately. The raspberries are about done.

I have put up some green beans the other day. I will pick more tomorrow. My tomatoes have some tomatoes now, and the peppers have flowers. The scarlet runner beans are blooming.

I was given more garden seeds today, so I planted some of them. I planted some watermelon seeds, some more dill and thyme, and cucumbers and watered the garden.

The horseradish looks good this year, even the new ones are up and look nice.

The redbeets and potatoes look good. The asparagus looks good too. And the parsley is going crazy out there. The sweet potatoes look real good. I need to get some potassium for the strawberries so I get more berries. My herbs all look good, zinnias are finally growing, and the cosmos and calendula and marigolds all look good and are beginning to bloom. I have lots of dill and thyme out there. The rue my friend gave me is doing well. The pumpkins and melons in the compost are going crazy, and the volunteer potatoes are doing good too. Most of the transplanted black eyed susans look great.

A strange vine that showed up last fall turns out to be a passion fruit vine. Bummer. I will try to dig it out and give it away. I don't care for it. It bloomed this morning.
