So, we used our compost in the gardens. The compost was not ready yet and we got loads and loads of random sprouts. I saw a sprout in the collard green/cauliflower bed and I decided to keep it and see what it would turn into. I am so glad I did because now I have 2 spaghetti squashes!! delicious! I am so excited!

What cicadas do to trees. I like it, I hope my tree stays alive and if it does I think this scarring will be a really cool look for the bonsai. :)






















My mimosa tree bonsai is working!! :) Ahh... it's going to be so pretty I am so excited!

mimosa bonsai gnome I painted, I think he's cute. :)

Did you know that okra does this? I didn't... I don't know if this is okay or right....

Corn silk, I don't think the corn is going to work out. I think there is too much stuff going on in this bed for the corn succeed.

Pretty beans! I really like these and want to grow them again. :)

Nasturtium flower, These are actually edible. They taste really spicy and flowery. It's interesting... not my favorite but I am willing to try them again.

The weather has been hot and humid. Yuck! The garden dries out soo fast and I am currently out of town house sitting so I only get to see the garden once a week. I wish I could be there to help with the garden more. Oh well, I am glad I get to play in it once a week. :) I am so excited about everything that's happening.
