Garden photos!

Since I've only said I should do this since forever. ^^;;;




Garden bed number 1! [and no I don't know why the corner of the shot is blurry. O.o]
Basil, tomatoes, mystery bean, acorn squash, corn, sunflowers and strawberries!


Garden bed #2! Mystery bean, onions, mystery seeds and a whole lot of "I was gonna plant more seeds, but I got anemia"


The mystery bean!
I had gotten a packet of mixed old seed for 75 cents and there were some red beans in there. Pretty big ones at that. Really, that should have been a warning :D There are two plants of these, one in each bed and holy crap, are they trying to take over :D Oddly, they look almost exactly like a squash. There's even a yellow flower on this one, just like a squash plant, which is just odd, since most the rest of the flowers are that light peach type.




Close up on the flowers. They're really neat ones. I will have to either track down just what kinda of bean these are and order new, or try and save some to replant because I really like those flowers. And I am a sucker for squash type foliage.



Even closer up on the flowers! With slightly poor focus. ><




Next year, I am so putting up trellises.



Or putting the corn in first so it can wind around that instead of the tomatoes.




Tomatoes! I totally forget what type, but they're supposed to be small, and wow, are there a lot of them! Go forth and ripen!



Another shot of bed number 1



Corn! Some of it is regular sweet corn, some of it is strawberry popcorn. Though from the lack of red leaves, I'm better more is sweet than strawberry.



Acorn squash blossom!
