Late Night and Early Morning Low Clounds

followed by abundant sunshine in the afternoons

We are heading into the Spring and Summer weather pattern here at SoCal

What that means exactly

I have no idea.

The weather has been and continues to be

Weird

But the garden is looking good so lets late a walk out back and have a look around and see how thing are coming

Pumpkin seeds seem to go thru the composer unfazed so we always have a ton of flowers and fruit.

Nothing more reliable than the apple tree. It looks like a good crop. Can Apple pie be far behind?

I always plant giant Sunflowers. The flowers are amazing and the local squirrels and birds get to enjoy the seeds.

The avocado is starting to get into full swing

This the same mess of Swiss Chard we have been eating from for last year. Still going and still delicious 

I planted two basil plants this because it went so well with the pizza last year. Smells really nice too.

Soon I will have too many tomatoes. :) No shots of ripe ones, as soon as they are discovered they are eaten on the spot. 

At about one o'clock on the stepping stone is a "volunteer" water melon. It's a small variety call moon and stars due to the large and small yellow spots on the skin.

The pumpkins are growing up at the base of the tomatoes. I'm hoping they cut down on the weeds. Pretty either way though. 

It looks like we'll have a bunch of the night blooming cereus flowers again this year 

Planted another nectarine after the last one refused to bare fruit. Still too early to tell but this looks promising.

So that's the walk around, stop back in a week or so and you can have some tomatoes off the bush!
