So.....My summer started May 15th, 2009. This was the first day I harvested my broccoli. I couldn't believe how delicious it was. The peach trees bloomed and now we are waiting on peaches to start to form. We have "V" stacked our tomato plants and they are growing like weeds. The cilantro is done and my flowers are starting to really take off. I planted Zinnias, Cosmos, and Bells of Ireland. The peppers and green beans are starting to bloom. I can't wait to be able to eat all these goodies!
My Pepper plants are really starting to grow....
Cilantro and Exotic Lettuce.....
Here is a better picture of our "V" shape trellis. It is perfect for tomato plants. It allows them to grow and keeps the leaves and tomatoes out of the aisle way.
Here is the tunnel on 5-26-09
The tomatoes are here. Aren't they pretty..... A few more weeks and we will be ready to pick;)
The broccoli did wonderful this year. I think I got to 6 -8 cuts off of each plant. The key is to plant early before it gets too hot.
My lonely little peach. This was the only peach I had found. We are thinking that the trees didn't get pollinated this year. Therefore, we are cutting them back. We will probably move the trees out of the tunnel in the fall or invest in bees.
Zucchini is my absolute favorite. I have picked two and I made muffins. They were soooo yummy. Can't wait for more to come;)
I love the blooms on the Zucchini plants. They are really pretty first thing in the morning.
