Nothing special, just some tomato plants, cucumbers, eggplants and failed spinach and lettuce.  It’s a small garden of 2 raised beds which are partially shaded most of the day (hence the failed lettuce and spinach) but it’s the only space we have to plant.  The tomatoes have pretty much taken over the garden at this point and we have a mega load of red and yellow cherry tomatoes.  The cucumbers are doing better than last year (we’ve harvested 3 so far with many more developing on the vine) and I can’t see the eggplants right now as the tomatoes have overgrown their baskets and engulfed them.  We didn’t plant any sunflowers this year but apparently we didn’t need to as what we planted last year laid seed and we ended up with two sunflowers in the middle of the garden.  Here are a few shots I took the other night.  More can be seen on my Flickr site.
