2. The mums have opened, a sure sign that summer is in its last weeks.
3. Lots of snapdragons in multiple colors.
4. Some of the things growing in the garden are cuter than others :)
5. The winner of my 12-bean garden trial is turning yellow.
6. Hand-pollinated squash are marked with yarn so they don't get eaten.
7. The pole beans are sky-high.
8. The winter lettuce is in seed.
9. The new short-season potatoes are done. This is "Mountain Rose" variety.
10. The cantaloupes are on the verge of being ripe. This is Noir des Carmes, which turns orange overnight.
A happy August garden! -Caleb
This is the kind of garden I dreamed of having until I discovered I was allergic to half the stuff in the yard. Boo hoo. But congrats--it's beautiful.
