The Garden Whip Around - Edibles

Things around the garden are chugging along quite nicely and Since this is a busy week for me the next few posts will be picture heavy.
Today is all about the edibles.
The Queensland Blue pumpkins are taking off across the lawn...
Raspberries that were planted at the start of the year are fruiting but the main crop will come in autumn.
Figs mmmmmmmm fruit of the gods, now I just have to keep the leaf eating caterpillars off.  Any suggestions?
The tomatoes are coming along nicely.....
Hopefully I have provided enough support for my tomatoes...
The rampant cherry tomato patch which grows like a patch of weeds but will provide us with tomatoes daily...
We have been harvesting the first of the cucumbers...
And there are a few button squash, but these will have to go soon as they are too susceptible to powdery mildew.
And the Italian Fryers Peppers are just waiting to ripen...
We have more bananas coming along...
And even the turmeric is making an appearance.
Mmm there is more happening than I thought.  What's happening in your garden?

  1. oh that is strange that you have turmeric like we grow here, but then you can also grow tomatoes and cucumbers, which we cannot grow in our hot and humid summer.
