Dormant

Not much going on in my concrete garden lately.

The hanging tomatoes are heat stressed and not producing much;

a few cherries, a miniature Early Girl now and then.

Most of the containers are grouped together under an improvised shade house.

The Better Boy and Yellow Pear are not doing much,

the Yellow Pear has teeny- tiny flowers on it right now.

I harvested all but two very small eggplants the other day.

Without the burden of the fruit it is now producing some buds.

My latest (and last surviving) lettuce in a tub with a few green onions and a Sweet 100.

The last of the carrots; I'll plant some more in August for a fall crop.

The swiss chard behind it just keeps on producing despite the heat.

The watermelon vine seems to want to support just two melons at a time and no more.

The zucchini and crook neck squash behind it has not started producing yet.

Just a lot of male flowers so far.

These melons - Bush Star on the left and cantaloupe in the center - look good,

lots of little melons coming along.

And then there's the honeydew.

It turned sickly so fast that I suspect the bug guy may have sprayed it.

I'll try to nurse it back to health because there are five or six melons on it,

but I don't have much hope for it.
