One of my favorite things:
the 2020 Sculpture Garden has begun to create itself.
The Candy Roaster squash plants are just beginning to reach for the trellis.
How are everyone else's doing?

Already eclipsing the fence, being disentangled from nearby tree, putting out blossoms galore. It's a bit scary!
ReplyDeleteNo one believed me. Even with pictures!! ;)
DeleteNeat photos
ReplyDeleteI'm learning this summer that Miracle grow and a small deck area are a delicately balanced relationship. The tomato plants are so huge, there's barely room for me to sit outside. If I'm out there, the the sparrows start squaking away for me to leave so them can take a sip of water and snack on tiny bird see. Barely half a cup lasts for days. Nice to watch something living without a mask on.
I'm so glad you have a garden this year - that's wonderful! And visiting birds, too. Huzzah!
DeleteBlooms! They're also reaching out the the tall weeds around it, which amuses me. :-) One if them is not in a hospitable area, and it's still plugging along!
ReplyDeleteSounds good! Carry on, Candy Roasters!
DeleteSculpture Garden, indeed - beautiful! Green with envy here - my Sweet Meat squashes had a rough start thanks to slugs mowing them down, and late re-planting. Have my fingers crossed they'll produce at least one ripe one before the first frost (chances are slim).
ReplyDeleteCheers,

Oh Sister of the Short Season, I hear you and I wish your squash plants good luck! I find myself thinking more and more of a permanent greenhouse...and a dairy goat.
DeleteSuch an incredible shade of green in the second photo and I'm admiring that sweet little tendril. Resident Chef has been harvesting little tomatoes from his plants as well as lettuce and herbs....a good harvest for a small 'garden' on our balcony.
ReplyDeleteYour garden is already producing more than mine! Isn't it a luxurious feeling? Yay for the Resident Chef and Gardener!
DeleteThis is my first year trying to grow squash, and it's been slow. We presently live in a clearing in the forest with sun, but it's limited by the circle of trees around us. My squash plants are still small, not reaching yet. Maybe! (here's a secret that I haven't made public yet. We are in the process of buying a big ranch about 30 miles from here - with tons and tons of sun. Gardening is going to change for me!)
ReplyDeleteOh KB that is such exciting news!! When I left Colorado it was during a tremendous rise in real estate prices, and I had to leave the farm I was renting - the second one. I just couldn't face looking for something else to rent after 7 years of moving around, and buying was out of the question. Years later, here in MA, another researcher was telling me about how his family bought a place in CO because the real estate market had crashed and prices were great! I've sometimes wondered what would have happened if I'd tried to stick it out a bit longer. Oh well! Anyway: CONGRATULATIONS!!
