Trellis


Rather than fix the stained siding on the side of the house we decided to cover it up with vines. We built a trellis and have planted some vines we hope will grow up and cover it. The two on either end are honeysuckle and the one in the middle is a passion flower.

First Girl Zucchini Bud


Sure enough, the girl zucchini buds do look different from the boy buds. I was getting worried I didn't see any, but one little lady has decided to brave it with the fellas.

Bean Flower


Spotted my first flower on a bean plant today. It's a pretty little purple thing. I was thrilled to read online that beans don't need bees for pollination so I can leave it inside the screen cage for protection.
