TA-DA!!!! My garden pictures!

Here are some pictures of my garden as of today!
Since it's been raining most of the week they have been drinking very well! But, it's supposed to be sunny and warm allllllll weekend long, so if I'm outside (which I'm sure I will be) then I will probably hear it grow, just like I'll be hearing the grass growing!! LOL

The first pic is of my Upside Down Patio Garden, and this thing is utterly cool!! My tomato plants are hanging DOWN!! I have 6 of them in this sucker. On the left of the top is one set of 1/2 runner green beans--I planted several in here before I found out they need a stake or something to vine about. But, my sister (who is a long time gardener) said to go ahead and try it out to see what happens with them! So, I'm letting them grow over the side. On the right side are cucumbers! They are growing very nicely also!

The next pic is of my garden plot. Boy, was this fun to dig up! Took me a week to do and a week to recover from! lol At the top are my corn plants, then more green beans ( I love 1/2 runners!) and below the beans are some more cucumber plants. I also have one lone cantaloupe plant in there. It's not growing as well as I thought it would, but we will see!

The last pic is a closer shot of my corn plants! Right now they aren't as "high as an elephant's eye", but they do "look like they're climbing clear up to the sky" (from the musical 'Oklahoma'). I hope these actually sprout ears. I've heard the first time you plant corn, sometimes it doesn't grow so well. But, I'm hoping!!

I think it will be totally cool to be able to walk out the basement door and pick corn, green beans and tomatoes! And I'll probably be busy canning a lot this summer also! I can't wait!!
