Sugar Daddy Peas = Yummy Sweetness!

My sugar daddy peas usually don't make it inside to measure the harvest. To me they taste best straight from the vine to my mouth!! But today I had just finished lunch so these guys will wait and be enjoyed with my supper tonight.




Sugar Daddy Peas - 6 oz.


I also found this little guy enjoying the sun.

Do Frogs Eat Aphids

I found another frog sitting on an okra leaf as if he had found a giant lily pad. I searched the net and can you believe that some people grow aphids to feed to frogs!! I sure hope that all the frogs that I am seeing in the garden will keep the aphids out!!!





The cantaloupe has reached the top of the trellis. I find myself looking at it and thinking... REACH FOR THE SKY!!



Check out the Tuesday Garden Party at An Oregon Cottage and Oh, How My Garden Grows!

What's Going On?

I know I am overwhelming some of you. Three posts in one day!! But there seems to be so much going on in the garden. If you have been reading my blog, you know that we received lots of rain Tuesday and Wednesday. Well as I strolled through the garden this morning, I found some amusing as well as disturbing discoveries in my garden. I am hoping that someone can help me solve a mystery or two!!

First I know we have received lots of rain especially after a long dry spell but this little guy has confused my okra with a lilly pad. (smile) He's so cute!!


Next stop, these guys grew overnight under my cantaloupe.


Found another worm today. I was really bummed. Two more tomatoes are now gone...................... (big sigh!)


Now.... What is going on with my pepper plants and this tomato plants? Yesterday these plants looked great! Today the leaves are all droopy. I know it isn't the heat because right now it is very pleasant outside. Nothing like the upper 90s we had last week. Does anyone have wisdom for me? Words of encouragement? Trying not to panic.






I hope all of you are having a wonderful Friday!

Blessings,

Debbie
