Week Three

What a difference a week makes! We got back in town yesterday to discover some delightful and some less-than-delightful changes to the garden. First off, only one baby pea shoot has survived so far. The baby romaine also kicked the bucket after dealing with temperatures in the 90's this week. However, the rest of the garden is thriving. 

Here's a picture of the garden after week one, just to show the difference in plant size. 








Aside from what's growing in my garden bed, we have a tree that's bearing some sort of mystery fruit. Could it be apricots? 









The baby basil is coming in strong, as is the first acorn squash shoot. The carrot tops are taking on a more "carrot-y" appearance, and we have four bean sprouts pushing out of the dirt. We also have baby cantaloupe! The most exciting development is the first itty-bitty tomatoes. Hooray!
