Your 2025 Garden

I'm still getting a few tomatoes daily, but almost everything else has succumbed to the heat. I'm picking some figs.

Here's the elderberry bush I transplanted this Spring. Its highest foliage is at eye level, which is about 5' tall. It has more than doubled in size since April.

Looks awesome!

My elderberry fruited first time last year. This year it had more fruits and chickens go crazy for them.

Good to know.

The elderberry I purchased for cross-pollination is about 24", not bad for a little twig that arrived in the mail.

As the ground dries out the fall garden is sprouting qickly. Cucumber, melons, green beans and corn are up. First tomato on the waterlogged tomatoes. The green beans that sprouted in the spring will be primarily for seed. They came up in waterlogged clay soil and endured cold, heat, wind and hail but still survived and are currently producing. First generation adaptation!

Lots of female blossoms on melons and watermelons, cucumbers still struggling but I got my first cucumber last week. Sweet potatoes are sprawling.

Next year I need to do tomato starts for the fall garden and see if there's time.

I just realized it's time to plan the fall garden, 90 days 'til frost.

If I'm lucky, 6 weeks until first frost.
