Just add water

The place is turning into a jungle. By the time the tomatoes are ready I'm going to need a tracker and machete to get in there.

Shade-house jungle.
And the corn is as high as an elephants eye, Yeeow! Aye-yip-aye-yo-ee-ay!
Garlic in plaits, well rough old plaits but I was pressed for time.
First lot of beetroot, second lot will be picked before they disappear under the bush tomatoes.
We normally share these with the birds as the vine is mainly grown as a shade for the office window.
Not far off.
We'll be eating Scarlet runners soon.

And my pumpkin patch looking tidy as usual. Mixed varieties in there along with some watermelon just to make it interesting.

Hi Dixie, it's amazing what happens when you get some good rain and not to much heat. This spring and summer start have been the best in years.
