We've had lots of rain recently. Not ark-building rain, but more of an inconvenient, raining when I have free time to putter in the garden, everything is lush and green and growing like crazy rain.
I got a few moments between drops to slip out and get some garden pictures. Some of these plants I can take credit for - some are the neighbor's.
Russian Sage and Black Eyed Susans around the bird feeder my dad gave me when we moved to NY.
The neighbor's pumpkin patch - you can see 3 large pumpkins in various stages of ripening in this photo - there are probably close to a dozen in the patch all together.
New life for old farm implements -my neighbor uses them as stakes for her tall plants- the tomatoes, the dill, and more. Over the past two years the stakes have included hoes and rakes, old crutches, skis and ski poles, and more. It is great fun to see what will appear out there next.
Pass the Peas - take 2.
We planted 24 more pea plants.
All but 6 came up.
We are looking forward to a great 2nd harvest - and we won't let them stay on the vine so long this time around.
