Memorial Day Weekend

Plot #1: neighbor plot contains a green zucchini that grew from a yellow blossom to a 12+ giant in 5 days, then filled out on the 6th day. Hurrah for raised bed gardening. May be woody texture by now.  Our Plot #1 get intermittent sunlight only but a good experiment. Home: harvested first Early Girl Saturday, delicious, then second Sunday after seeing squirrels eyeing as a rolling round plaything. Bee Balm, planted where we've dug in compost for past years, is now almost 6 feet tall. The four yellow jackets swarm; one is so fat it bends the blossoms over. They love it; everthing else pollinates. AWOL from community garden in center of town!
