How does the garden grow?

At the moment, the garden is growing GREAT!!!! Not only do I have morning glories:



white morning glory bloom And the newest bloom, my very first blooming cosmo of the year:

bright pink bloom

But I also have green beans:

green bean plants growing very bushy
Isn't it crazy how tall and bushy they're getting???

And MUCH to my surprise... when I went outside last night, I discovered that after two months of waiting for them to sprout... I have pepper plants!!!!!!

pepper plants growing very close together in a row Two different sets of them, in fact!!!!!

more pepper plants
I know I planted four types of peppers... cayenne, cerrano, jalapeno, and umm... maybe bell peppers? I dunno. I'd given up on them ever coming up, after waiting all of this time! I was so surprised!

I also have carrots coming up here and there in the back, and some cherry tomatoes... I'll make sure and take pics of those later. I'll also have to take new pics once I get the garden area weeded and the peppers and cherry tomato plants thinned out.


How about you? Do you have a garden? Anything cool growing in it?

Your garden's growing beautifully!
Peppers do seem to take forever, even out here in sunny SoCal - mine is just finally putting out little pepper flowers since it's gotten hot. I think hot weather must be their thing!
