Calla Lilies - growing over 7 feet tall in the back yard.

Statice.

Lily in a pot about to bloom - saved from last Easter. That is catnip on the left.

This is a basil plant. You could say it went wild.

My little plant nursery.

Bush Beans are up.

Bush Beans in a row. Dahlias are poking up through. The dahlias will flower shortly after the beans are harvested.

Eggplant - a light lavender variety.

Lemon Balm.

Spinach and parsley.

Berries, eggplant, cucumbers, and peppers - just getting a start. I made several trellises for the cukes and other climbers.

Heirloom tomatoes.

Cherry tomatoes just getting started. Cauliflower in the background

Pickling cucumbers and peppers.

Cauliflower, tomato, beans, etc.

Apricots are weighing down the branches. Some of the limbs almost touch the ground.

Plums. Last year the birds, squirrels, and other rodents got most of our plums and apricots. This year Lee is on the warpath so we should have a good harvest.
