So many pretty fall colors. |
How a yellow straight neck squash grows. |
Pat, a lifetime friend of Lisa's, helps pick flowers. A beautiful day in the garden. |
Bees also like leaves to rest on. |
Chris, a friend of mine from Sprague's classrooms, picks the lemon cucumbers. Each of the yellow flowers has the potential to become a lemon cucumber. Wow. |
Anna gently picks the patty pan summer squash. |
A loaded slicing cucumber plant. |
These guys wish they had a bigger box... |
Bees hiding IN the flower. Pollination is occurring. |
Two kinds of bees crawled out. |
My helpers hanging on when we are in Grandpa's golf cart. Arms linked and hanging on to the side bars. |
Lisa points at a bee who thinks Lisa picked all the flowers for her! |
Angie picking (and taste testing occasionally) the Sun Sugar cherry tomatoes. |
Beautiful orange and red beets. |
Florencio cleans the beets, Lisa and Pat clean the extra leaves off of the flowers. |
Snowberry cherry tomatoes. |
Sweet Million cherry tomatoes. |
A branching sunflower. Multiple flowers on one plant unlike the old fashioned ones that have one huge seed head. |
A bee on the fennel flowers. |
Asparagus ferns with berries that will all turn red. This is a good thing! |
Volunteer sunflowers. One is old fashioned and the one in the back is a branching one. They are growing in the asparagus bed. |
An up close look at a sunflower. Many little flowers in the BIG seed head. These are called composite flowers. |
Scarlet runner beans. Pink seeds! Picking tomatoes can do a number on your hands. |
Faith (cousin) and her Bill dissect a scarlet runner bean. |
Tiny dahlias in among the other flowers. |
Cheery yellow dahlia. |
Ruffles with color! |
Tight rose bud with a bloomed out rose in the background. |
Lunch. Yumminess. |
Cantaloupe snacking. |
Honeydew, too. |
Faith hanging on "kid fashion" for safety. Bill in the front with Angie. "Let's go!" |
Florencio is excited about the lettuce. |
A big smiley sunflower. |
Gladiolas, statice and zinnias. |
Zinnias and statice. I really like these colors together. |
A very dark gladiola. Looks like velvet. |
A nice collection. |
Hot days call for icy treats. |
Cucs and patty pans. |
Lemon cucs. |
Jalapeno peppers. |
Plums, oh my! |
