Bountiful garden you have there. Your family must be eating lots of fresh veggies. I have tried to grow cabbage and brocolli, but the cabbage worms are awful. I know you can use liquid seven on them, but I'm a little hesitant about that. Just yesterday I had my brother buy me 2 cabbages, so I can make cabbage and ham today. Yours look great. I know you have a different climate in Oregon, maybe you don't have as many problems as the humid south. I also use cinder blocks in some of my raised beds. In the cinder block holes I usually put flowers that aren't too tall.....Thanks for posting video, enjoyed it.

What a beautiful setting--on a slope with a lake. Immaculately mowed. I think I would put a terrace of big rocks (not those whitish ones) near the top of the slope. (Maybe rocks are not so easy to get in that area.) I can see the Tar and Feather parentage in River Wind. Paris Overture has nice violet plum color; had never heard of that one.

How close together did you plant your okra?

ezzirah,
Okra were planted at approx. 12 inches apart. Row looks crowded because three seeds were planted in each hole.

austin95,
I have no info. about Cabbage.Plants were purchased from Walmart.

defrost49,
surati papadi is a tropical been mainly grown in India.It is the ingredient of the very popular cooking item called Undhiyun.
It is a very pretty looking plant that bears beautiful flowers as seen in the pic.The beans are 2 inches long white in looks.

Chaman your plants look quite healthy and lush. Good pictures.
Are these recent pictures? Because my plants in zone 6 are big and yielding--like eggplants, okra, peppers and peanuts(big bush like)--yours look still small and not sure of the yield--is it because we have constant warm temps? I heard temps in Maryland also quite warm.

These pics. were taken in June.Plants are yielding little above my expectations. Kale has been removed to plant peas.Beets have given room for cow-peas.I shall post recent pics. as soon as camera is available.

Gorgeous photos, I am especially intrigued by the surati papadi. It is a beautiful plant, and I love growing beans. Do you know of a seed source for them? Google suggests the spelling "surti papdi" but there don't seem to be any US seed houses selling them.

Again, beautiful garden. I am envious of your productive plants, it's been a less than satisfying garden year out here in Idaho.

Looks like your site is some kind of municipal land. Do you have irrigation there?

I am intrigued by the papadi also. Is it in the Vigna group?

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing. Looks like eggplants are a designated 'sacrificial plant' for you too. Mine look sad, one fruit per plant.

Wow! Let me know when dinner is ready! :-)

Your soil looks very sandy. That must prove to be a watering challenge.

Chaman, What is your source for the surati papadi?

Or is a secret family stash? ;)
