From the garden

This soap reminds me of shells on a beach!

This is my little pickling cucumber. He isn't doing so well. He is the sole survivor from a slug attack in the spring and really hasn't grown much since the first of July. He did put out a flower though. Go little cucumber, go!

Transparent Fruits

I have created those photos to show the inner beauty of fruits when they are sliced. I placed them on a semi-transparent white Plexiglas and positioned the lighting underneath and on top to get the right amount of light for those photos.

Cucumber Partition

Aka White Landis. Heirloom from Pennsylvania. One of the largest whites that will turn yellow with age, but will still remain quite crisp inside.

Cucumbers in the garden.

This cucumber plant is in our garden. Only flowers at this time, but it should be loaded with cucumbers in a few weeks!

Forgot to upload this one.. taken on April 25, right after transplanting to one gallon pots.

One was growing through the wire grid so that I had to cut it up to harvest it.

Cucumbers, Red onion, and Fresh Dill

One of quite a few varieties, bearing a "netted" outer appearance. These remain sweet, crisp and juicy for a long period of time. Looks like a russet potato! A heirloom from Poona, India. Can be harvested when white or later when the russet skin has appeared.

Here's my cucumber that I trained against a lilac tree. Note the flowers near the top - I hope they don't bear fruit because I'll have to use a ladder to harvest. This plant is about 14' tall at this point, with little signs of stopping....
