Raining raining - growing growing

We have had a couple of days rain so no park time but it is sure making our garden grow. I thought we would share some of what is growing seeing how there no picture of handsome and debonaire ME!  (okay Mom found a pic of ME and the Dweeb to add in - we didn't want you forgetting what we look like :)  Now Mom just has a little veggie patch but she is quite proud of it. This year she planted cabbages, (english and savoy) potatoes, onions and arugula (dads favorite) - oh there is a strawberry growing too - it came up all by itself from last year. The tomato's are in pots this year and although they are growing well we just have one single tomato at the moment and it growing huge. Our apple trees are growing and filling out and we have apples on one. The blueberries are also growing like crazy and we have lots of blue berries on them.

  1. Looking great guys. I love the stuff that comes back. It is so cool.

    Dad put in more lettuce and spinach last night. Mom and Dad have been putting baby spinach in everything lately so they decided that would be a good add this year.

  3. Mommy just planted stuff on Memorial Day. She tries to aim to plant by Mother's Day, but she is a week or so off schedule. We can't believe how big your tomato is already. We don't even have flowers on the vine yet.

  5. your apples look great, mom would eat them all directly from the tree.
    we have not much things in my back yard what we can eat (except Hell-mut and the chicken, but that's not allowed), but my mom plans every year to have more foodables in the garden next year... :o)

  6. Lucky you. We have to squeeze as much as we can into our little town garden, big sigh. Hoping for a good harvest this year after two bad ones due to the weather. Have a fabulous Friday.
    Best wishes Molly

  15. Crikey ..... Mum is so envious of your garden. She plants stuff all the time but because we are such gypsies it all dies off when we are away and we never get to eat it. She does grow herbs and they seem to survive.

  19. Our mom is trying to grow tomatoes this year for the first time in a long time. She can't believe your Beefsteaks are that big already! Her little grape tomatoes (Juliet) are forming, but that's it!
    Your garden looks GREAT!
