Corn

bush beans and pole beans

Everything is looking great now, but we are supposed to get 3.5" of rain starting Friday along with high winds!

Ah, to be in zone 8!!! Everything looks fabulous! I will hope that it is a gentle rain- and that the winds pass you by! What did you start from seed?

I started several tomatoes but only 6 brandywines and 1 Creole made it - the rest I bought. I direct sowed the beans, corn, southern peas, cukes, squash and zukes - the last three I didn't get pics. Unfortunately, the weather says heavy rain.

Not only to be in zone 8 but to get from here, to where you are now . . . in about 6 months !

And, here is where Joan is during the summer: "My garden this past summer" .

Yep, I kind of remember photographs (and gardens ) like this .

Very nicew and so big. But where are you collards? I planted a few plants and they are just huge. I keep cutting the outer leaves and they grow back.

Oh that is so fabulous! I haven't even begun my corn yet. I have no where to put it yet!

Good luck, I'm sure everything will survive the wind and rain. I hope you even get to harvest and save some of that rain as well. :watering

Nope, no collards! I didn't plant any cool weather crops this spring.

So far no rain or bad weather - it went north of us. I saw where Arkansas got it instead of us. We still have a hefty chance of rain today though. It's hot and so muggy out.

It is absolutely disgusting out. I saw the weather and I think sunday we have a nasty chance of rain at least down here.

Southern - so when do your collards give in to the heat? I cut the outer branches and was hoping they would grow at least until end of June. Where I am going to replace them with watermelons?

Looks mighty fine and soooo neat, too. Noticed the shade. How many hours of direct sun do you get?
