My garden is doing fine. I have to water daily because it's been so hot and dry. We have had a lot of humidity and my tomatoes aren't happy with that. We've had a lot of peas ,lettuce,and my new veggie this year,Swiss chard. I picked it young so it was tender enough to put in a salad and it was good cooked. I think it will be a keeper for next years garden
The egg plant is growing nicely which is another new addition to my garden.
I had such luck with cantaloupe last year I decided to try watermelon which is my favorite summertime treat.
Today I was happy to see the start of a little melon,actually there were a few.
It seems a bit late but I planted the small round melon type so hopefully there will be enough time for them to mature.. The stores around here call them personal melons so I guess the hubby has to grow his own if he wants to eat one.
I really prefer the old type with the big back seeds but I'm not sure even I could eat that much.
