Not as good as last year, not nearly as many tomatoes on the vines .... Not sure if it was too hot ( my water bill will prove it was not for a lack of watering) or not enough bees.

Weeds are growing really well, even without being watered...

I only planted impatiens and petunias this year. They were looking very sad since I've barely watered them the past few weeks. But one upside of these past days of heavy rain - they have definitely perked up. Next year I might be brave enough to try tomatoes...

Super!

Tomatoes, corn, bell peppers and hot peppers, sweet corn, cabbage, zucchini, red potatoes and russet potatoes. And pumpkins that are already orange!

mine's done I couldn't keep up with the watering. I have a huge problem with heat and I keep passing out in it.

Since moving to Florida, we have only had one garden. The mocking birds ate most of the tomatoes and a hurricane cost me my frozen vegetables. So no more gardens. I can't work outside anymore anyway and I don't want to add to DH's work.
