Cucumber harvest

This is the latest harvest from my garden. There were three large cucumbers, beans (I think they are yin yang), silverbeet and a Lebanese eggplant. Had I realised cucumbers were super fast growers and the easiest, I would have planted them a long ago. The eggplant is the fruit of a second flush of flowers that the plant had following the previous harvest. They are decent size due to the rains in February. The yin yang beans (Phaseolus vulgaris Yin Yang) are still a bit young, but they were too tempting to leave on the stalks.

End of Summer

It’s the end of Summer and some plants are doing well and some are still developing. Here is the update:
I should a have started a bit earlier with planting the Turks Turban pumpkin. It has grown heaps in a month and is now flowering, but I left it too late and the cold weather is quickly approaching.

Cucumbers are doing well.

The zucchini fruit is finally developing.

Another flush of flowers from the Lebanese eggplants has resulted in new fruit, and bigger this time, as it’s been rather rainy this month.

The "Giant Russian" sunflowers are taller than the shed and starting to bud.

The Pink Lady apples are almost full size and are ready for picking but I want to wait as long as possible.

This grape vine started as a cutting and now it’s as tall as the fence.
