same bed another day looking east--the tall burgundy-leaved tree behind the rangoon creeper is a plum tree which I may, or may not, remove when the back fence is removed--right now its holding up part of the fence. Normally there are guy wires from the posts on the back fence to the posts by the brick path (you can see the rust from them on the front post of the first shot). Normally there would be cucumbers all acrosss that first trellis in this shot--my hands are kinda tied here until August. Its OK though, because I successively sow cukes all summer.

I'll show you a couple of others another day--there are a few peppers down between the rangoon creeper and the plum tree, they like a lot of shade July-Sept

Normally I don't take pictures of the vegetables, but if I think about it next week I will. These 2 were taken to show somebody on another DG forum the pathetic and herculeon efforts I'm having to take to protect and grow some rather valuable bulbs through this fencing nightmare.

edited to add I was almost stepping on the squash to take this pic
