Potatoes in flower - soon, the flowers will fall. A few small green fruits may form (similar to a tomato), the source of the potato seed. However, most of the action is happening underground - flowers stimulate the formation of potatoes underground. These will grow all summer and can be dug at any time.
Peppers, eggplant, carrots, and flowers.
Nasturtium, marigolds, tomatoes, and, yes, one weed. Can you spot it?
Eggplants and zinnias.
Peas! These are cool season crops and, as the nights warm up, they will stop producing and die back. However, they will work all summer, "fixing" nitrogen in the soil.
The "three sisters" planting - we are seeing the tassels of the first corn. Each tassel is attached to a kernel, and must be pollinated separately for its kernel to develop.
Sunflowers and lettuce. The lettuce will "bolt" in hot weather, producing seeds to save for next year's crop.
The first pepper of the year!
