I started stringing up the Fordhook lima beans this afternoon. I used screw eyes and dowel rods with yellow plastic twine.

The cantaloupes were outgrowing the wire and string, so I put another wire and added string all the way up to the pipe at the top.

Here are photos of the two garden boxes.

I think there will be eggplant blossoms this week.

The stevia plants are growing fast. If they do well, we will have no-calorie sweetener for free.

The one cayenne pepper is getting longer.

I just spotted some jalapeno peppers.

All five of the hummingbird vine seeds that I planted have now sprouted. They will grow very quickly. The last ones we had grew 2 or 3 inches a day.
