Cherry tomatoes, garden, Roscoe

These are now red and delicious, but they were prettier here.

Abstract in guano

This is a bird dropping on the trunk of my black car that resembles an angry hummingbird to me.

Zucchini flower

Only 3 zucchinis so far, but I love the plants and the flowers.

Basil

I usually buy 12 or more basil plants every year. Plant Ranch has the best ones around here and they have them early for us daring types who plant early. I usually lose 3 or 4 to wilt or cold.

We had a warm spring and every single plant is 2 feet tall and bushy. Plus a lot of volunteers from last year are showing up. It's a good thing I love pesto.

Spearmint on dock.

This has been an incredible year for mint. I cut this back 6 inches every 10 days and it's right back in a week.
