After a few weeks off, we’re back with an update of what’s going on in the garden!

Our tomato plants are completely loaded, but every time I tried to take a picture of the tomatoes, my camera flipped out, so I have no tomato photos.

I do have plenty of jalapenos growing. My spicy peppers seem to be doing much better than my sweet peppers. I am going to have tons of jalapenos, cayennes, and tabascos.

The cucumbers keep producing, but we’re at the time of year when you have to pick them fast, or they go bitter.

And we have more surprise flowers.

Now I know absolutely nothing about flowers. The wild sunflower is the state flower of Kansas, after that, I’m out. So I had no idea what these were even though they are popping up in just about every yard in my neighborhood right now.

According to a google search, they appear to be Amaryllis belladonna, but I wouldn’t count on me to pick out edible plants in the wilderness, if you know what I mean. They’re very pretty, though they kind of smell like baby poop (or at least something in their vicinity smells very strongly of baby poop.) Anybody know if I’m right?
