Today in a small area where I have grown vegetables in the past, I added two bags of top soil and three bags of gardening soil in order to improve the quality of the soil, and I planted some carrots, parsnips, and turnips. I’m trying root vegetables this year, even though cucumbers are what I have had the most success with in the past. This year I’m trying some cucumbers in containers at a different spot, along with some tomatoes. There have been fewer caterpillars bothering the tomato and cucumber plants the past couple of days.
I don’t know what this bush is called, but it has a lot of blossoms at the moment.
The rhododendron looks as if it is going to have a number of blossoms, but only one has begun to open.
And one of the tomato plants is beginning to develop blossoms.
