garden update january 2012

my summer garden has exploded! literally out of the garden.



i have huge sunflowers, and vines that have almost reached the back door. unfortunately the tomatoes are not as big and healthy as i had hoped. maybe next year.



this vine keeps flowering and growing, but i am not sure what it is yet. and the herbs and strawberries in the wall pockets are really happy.



i picked my first cucumber from another vine that self seeded in a pot, (the fruit at the front) and the fruit that i chopped in half on the chopping board is the fruit from the huge vine that is taking over my yard. i think it might be a white zucchini but i am not sure. anyone have any ideas?



the cucumber was so tasty, i hope i get to enjoy many more this summer.
