Morning stroll around the patch

We received 7.5mm of rain over night.

It's a glorious morning, everything looks clean and fresh so I took a stroll with the camera.

The first of my tomatoes are nearly ready.
(Health Kick planted as seedlings)
The last of the potato plants have died off in the lefthand pot so I will leave it for another week before upending it to see how many potatoes we have. The righthand pot isn't doing so well as the
28 spot lady beetle attacked the plants.
A squash ready for picking
A busy bee working in a squash flower
A yellow zucchini ready for picking....
and a green zucchini on it's way to maturity
Here's a green zucchini I picked Sunday morning
It was over 25cm (10") long :-)

Have a great day.

Your vegies are looking great, much better than my poor things. It's amazing what a bit of rain will do to the garden, everything seems to grow inches. We haven't had rain here since June, so we are hanging out for some.

Have a great day,

Tania
