Congratulations on your baby!
We have a garden here at work and for the first year since I started it, we actually have corn, squash, and beans! Also, I have pumpkins growing *under* my front porch at home. The neighbor kids had pumpkin seeds out there last fall, and some must have fallen underneath. Now they get the south sun same as my inside plants, and I guess they germinated! :lol:

Nice color on that Iris.
How long before that eggplant makes it to the dinner table? :poke:

Well this is another one of the *gifts* that my dear father in law left me. He didn't know how to explain it in English so I looked it up. I don't know why it's thriving because I don't do anything to it! I'm afraid it will make it to the squirrel's dinner table before it makes it to mine! I have to get some sort of cage to put around it. :roll:
