Garden Gone Wild

So the garden is doing rather well this year so far...

I put that shovel in the background right next to the zuccinni plant to provide a little perspective. I planted this, and everything else on March 28th.

This is the watermelon plant. It's still small, but it's much bigger than last years (which never grew at all).

The tomato plants. 10 total. Way to many for proper spacing, but who cares, I'm having fun. :)

Let's see here. In the background, the giant plant is the zuccinni plant again. Next to it is a bush cucumber. In front of the bush cucumber is a regular vine cucumber and next to the vine cucumber is an acorn squash. In front of the acorn squash, at the foreground of the photo is a delicata squash (everyone wants to know what a delicata is; I have no idea, it just sounded cool.) And next to the delicata is one plant that I am looking forward to more than most; the ocra. Yay!


And here we have the Big Ben pumpkin plant in the front, bell peppers in the middle (I'm still not sure if the pepper is going to make it, it doesn't seem to be doing much growing (it was purchased from a nursery, not from seed). In the background is the watermelon plant again. I am quite proud of that little guy.
