What did you do in your garden today?

Im in Washington near Tacoma. We needed to be near a base when hubby retired.

Family is mostly in Hermiston and Stanfield. Yes that's close to Pendleton. It's where I grew up. The two Walchli farms were my two great Uncles' places. Great aunts are still around. Watermelons are a big deal

You may know the Olson's. He was a teacher and his wife an admin at the school district for Umatilla County or Herminston, not sure. So long ago.

Dang, world is so small.

Onions and radishes planted last weekend are showing greenery now. Expecting lettuce soon.

Need to get the last two beds installed so I can finish up planting.

It appears one of the local backyard Bambi's was killed on the road Thursday night. Sad to see that.

planted peas and my early possible beans. peas are late and this is the latest i've planted the early beans in several years, but i do like to have some early fresh beans. both are usually well worth it.

i have to be sure to keep an eye on the moisture levels since i don't have a hose out yet for the gardens and besides that the faucet on the back of the house isn't working so we'll need that replaced.

Hope they do well for you (and her)! We love Lima's and I've never had luck with them...

i used to have better luck with them, but i'm not growing any more this year.

Not going into the vegetable gardens...into the flower beds I was going to prep this fall and populate next Spring (plans, what plans?). Wife loves the scent of these.

Beautiful!!

Then by the time I was doing that, hubby came out and with the hoe he made a line. So I put the Roma tomatoes. Only 8 plants. I over did it last year with 25,lol.

25 is for sure too many if you only want a few.

Found a piece of cattle wire and put it up as trellis for the beans I got from @flowerbug.

i didn't send any climbing beans.

if any do start climbing they are an off-type and you can cull them or let them go depending upon what you want to do...

the peas might get 2-3ft tall.

The green onions and getting a cone thingy on the top. Would that be a flower?

yes. the bees adore onion flowers.
