Week 2: Starting to grow!

Okay, here's the first of the weekly growing updates!
This is the sweet potato/potato bed. 
Some green beans are peeking up through the soil.  They're planted in the holes under the circle of the bean tower.  

The pepper bed.  In the center rear is the Park's Whopper tomato and in the very center is a Brandywine heirloom tomato that we got this past weekend at the Brookgreen Gardens plant sale.  It was just planted this evening so it will perk up soon.  


Zucchini, summer squash, and cucumbers.  A few of these were dug up by the evil squirrels, but they have been replanted twice ... hopefully they pull through.  

In the asparagus bed, Matthew planted 100 radish seeds for his germination experiment.  So far 5 little seedlings have come up!  We had a squirrel invasion here, too, so he may have to reseed this area in a week or so if no more come up.  

This is a pair of Cherokee purple heirloom tomato plants that we got this past weekend at the Brookgreen Gardens plant sale.
