Pea Seedlings (August 2005). Trying to grow a Fall crop of peas.
Tomatoes (August 2005). Ripening on the vine.
The Compost Pile (August 2005). All yard and kitchen scraps go here.
Woodland Sunflower (August 2005). A small sunflower that actually prefers shade.
The Wall-O-Beans (August 2005). If allowed to grow completely vertically, they would have been 15 feet tall. Instead, they arc onto the nearby hedges for support.
