Garden Friday

The garden post is going out a day early because we are headed to the Beehive State. The fun thing about have an overplanted garden is that you discover things everyday. The vegetables get kind of big before I discover them. And when you don't remember what you planted, it is even more surprising!

Here's the big mama I found yesterday - from outside the gate. I was hoping it was a watermelon (didn't we plant some watermelon?), but turn out it is a birdhouse gourd.



And here is one of the many babies on the way:



We even have a few sunflowers poking through:



And beside it all is a pretty little magnolia tree that is throwing out some very pretty blossoms:



Looks like the plants are thriving despite the heat!
