I planted a sweet Stella cherry tree today so now I have a pollinator for all three varieties of cherry trees. So far I have 30 watermelon plants, 3 varieties, 25 cantaloupe plants (2 varieties), 12 squash, 2 zucchini and 15 pumpkin plants stick their little heads above the soil. I have six new peach trees in my mini-orchard. My problem area last year was my tomatoes. In my tomato garden one plant has died and the rest are struggling. I planted two on my back porch (in buckets) and 5 in the big garden and they are doing much better so it just might be the space.
I have finished planting for the year. If it bears fruit that would be good and if it doesn't then so be it. I hope I have a bountiful harvest as there are many hungry people out there and the kids just love the pumpkins. I like the smiles on peoples faces.
