Pumpkin Flowers and the Veggie Garden

Pumpkin Flowers

It’s springtime and the seeds planted in the courtyard pots are starting to produce. These are typical squash blossoms and are on the pumpkin vines I planted. Click on the image to enlarge.

I also have planted (from a store-bought starter kit) radishes, carrots and several other veggies that I hope to harvest later in the summer, if we can keep the ground squirrels and rabbits away, that is. I also have tomato vines with several new flowers.

We shall see how the garden projects will do. We are still learning about how to deal with the higher temperatures in the desert.
