Out in the garden................


The two cucumber plants have blossoms on them so I hope the bees have been doing their job.






I planted cucumber seeds in 2 other pots.  It says 3 plants per pot but I put 6 seeds in just in case the squirrels would be digging in the pots.





The other pot has 4 cuke plants for sure and maybe the 5th one is a weed.  I should know soon.






There are some tiny starts on the 4th of July plants.  These are usually about golf ball size when ripe.







The Rutgers variety are filling in nicely.  There are lots of blooms but no tomatoes yet.









I have my first Coneflower bloom.  I didn't realize the camera had focused on the Evening Primrose until it was getting dark and too late to retake the photo.





A little farther over, the Annabelle Hydrangea blooms are big and white.  They will turn lime green later.






I pulled out lots of the Creeping Bellflower, but left these that are growing amongst the Peony stems.  They are the first to bloom and will get pulled out soon.

We got another inch of rain on Thursday for a total this week of 4.85".  That is 3 times the amount of rain we got for the whole month of May.
