Porch Garden Update II (July 27, 2010)

It's amazing. The garden just looks more enormous every week. The lettuce is now HUGE, and the zucchini have started flowering. I recently got some fragrant flowering plants (dianthus and heliotrope) to try and attract some bees to the second-floor garden. I took some photos when I went to check on the garden at 5am the other day. It was beautiful.

zucchini flower;

radish flower (I let them bolt because they didn't have the space to properly produce, and anyways the flowers are a pretty color!);

adorable mini lightbulb tomatoes;

and so much lettuce!!

Today I also noticed that the one strawberry still tagging along on the strawberry plants I got from my friends in Warwick has turned pink!

It's so adorable.
