In The Garden - June 4

It's 83 degrees this afternoon.  Not atypical for early June, but kind of a shock after we had a near miss with a late frost just last week.  *insert eyeroll here*  Can't say I'm surprised, but I'll never get used to such variability in the weather.

 A pictorial tour of the garden this week...

Trying out a new variety of shelling peas this year.  They're much taller than the usual variety.  They seem to like the 'shrine' that we built them...they've grown over six inches since we put it up.

It's a baby pumpkin plant!  Granny is trying very hard to grow some pumpkins this year!  Don't worry, we'll still go to the big pumpkin patch, too, in the fall.  That was too much fun to pass up.

Apricot season is nearly upon us.  The hail storm a couple of weeks ago thinned them for me.  The survivors are getting really big, really fast.  Woo hoo!

Bought new pots for the patio and got them filled with baby flowers.

I love these Christophii alliums.  They look like little constellations in my flower bed.

Yes, that's ornamental tobacco.  No, I'm not trying to get myself excommunicated.  I just love the sweet fragrance of these flowers.  I promise not to smoke any part thereof.  LOL!
