Flowers in the Garden this Week

Squash curly thing and first Cucumber Flower

Yukon Gold Potato Flower and the first of many sunflowers

Here are some of the flowers growing in the garden this week. I am

amazed that the cucumber is actually flowering because it looks rather anemic to me. The tomatoes are also flowering and I am just so happy that these tomatoes are starting to thrive. I tied them up on stakes today - except for the cherry tomatoes because I ran out of stakes and will have to use cages.

Also, when my five year old saw that the sunflower had opened

he said, "Good. Now we will have golden finches!"
