Corn is knee-high, dahlias are blooming...

The corn is doing nicely so you can expect corn-on-the-cob to pick as the season progresses.
 Long range view of veggie garden.  Beans, peas, beets, spinach, swiss chard, zucchini and all kinds of summer squash, along with onions, cucumbers, and a ton of herbs!
 Strictly tomatoes (all kinds) in this hoop house.
Peppers (all kinds), cantelope (mini), and eggplant in this hoop house.
And the dahlias:
This is a minature called "Thumbalina,"  and is a real cutie.  I don't know how many tubers it will put on since it's so small... less than a foot tall!!


 This photo is shot from one angle, while the one below if from another angle.
All-in-all, I'm very pleased with how the dahlias are growing this year--even with the cooler weather.  We've been told some "nice" warm weather is just around the corner.  The dahlias and veggies will both love it!!

Have a Great 4th of July!!
