Some of my swiss chard is popping out of the ground. My tomatoe plants are growing, my thyme is spreading, there are 6 flowers on the zuccini squash, OH, I have one red strawberry. Now when to pick it???? I’ve never picked strawberries. I need to get more plants. Roomey’s okra are above ground, but I think these cool temps are not helping them. The yard long cucumbers are about 1 1/2 inches high. One looks a little peeked, hopefully it will get stronger. The pickling cucumbers are growing tenecles to climb, have to put up the wire to keep them off the soil.
The daylillies I planted in the with the cucumbers have not popped up yet.

Wow! I am thrilled with a few tulips; you've got lots to be proud of! Oh, to have a garden again....

Let me know how those pickling cukes turn out ok? Are you going to pickle them?
