I'm sharing six things from the garden on this lovely Saturday. Just a few vegetable related things.
Six on Saturday is hosted by the
Propagator. Where gardeners all over the world share the goings on in their gardens.
In a shady corner of the corn patch grows a free range tomato plant. Who are its people, where did it come from? Possibly it will be a hybrid since we had tiny sweat bees pollinating tomato blooms last year.
2) Another self-sown plant is this little cucumber in the sweet potato patch. And the little plant in the bottom right hand corner is the tiniest of the tiny sweet potato slips.
3) Leaf celery. One of my triumphs after trying for years to raise a few plants from seed. Now we have a whole bed of them behind the greenhouse.
4) Asian chives. It only took two packets of seed to get 7 chive plants. But if you're counting, there are only 6 plants shown. Yes, a chive was lost to a weeding incident.
5) A ladybug amongst the bush bean blooms? I think not. More likely the dreaded spotted cucumber beetle.
6) And last but not least. I wanted to show the first ripening tomato. This variety is Sun Gold (F1) a cherry type.
