Something about heat and lack of rain, and being planted in pots. So today I went out to water and discovered&#8230;baby radishes! Also, baby chard and beets! I planted new seeds&#8230;last weekend, I guess, after I pulled up the last five radishes and had space left in a pot. <\/p>\n<p>So here&#8217;s my garden:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo8-e1371168344414.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo8-e1371168344414-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"photo(8)\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo8-e1371168344414-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo8-e1371168344414.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That front pot has two chards (the third didn&#8217;t grow) and the baby radishes. Behind it is the Giant Pot Of Beets (and three chards). Behind that are two more pots, each with a cherry tomato plant, each with several green tomatoes. (Already!)<\/p>\n<p>You can see half the lettuce pot on the left (formerly the lettuce and radish pot), and behind that is my eggplant. I&#8217;m crossing my fingers on the eggplant. Not shown, because it&#8217;s to the left of the front pot in this photo, is the second beet\/chard pot.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo9-e1371168364153.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo9-e1371168364153-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"photo(9)\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo9-e1371168364153-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo9-e1371168364153.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The in-ground garden, with the Extremely Happy Lettuces. Which are interspersed with a few volunteer dill that aren&#8217;t really visible. The giant green leaves belong to some native prairie plant that I got a few years ago. I don&#8217;t remember what it is. It gets one more leaf every year but so far hasn&#8217;t flowered. <\/p>\n<p>The big bushy green plant is a purple coneflower. What looks like bare dirt is where I planted beets and chard; I have four beets and two or three chards growing, plus a few baby ones from what I planted last week. The pot at the end of the garden is more chard, and you can just barely see my flowering chives to the left of the chard.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo7-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"photo(7)\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1228\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo7-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/elizabethshack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/photo7.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>And my new hydrangea is starting to flower.
