Cucumber seeds

I planted about eight cucumber seeds near the beans this morning. I hope the big birds don't eat them, though. The birds here have attacked the bean sprouts with a vengeance this year. The dry weather isn't helping them grow strong, either.

I bought an Anna Smith apple tree on Friday, to be used as a polinator for the lone apple tree in our back yard. I'll get that tree dug in before the monsoon.

What we need is bird netting around the crops.

The Princess tree is now being invaded by large cutter bees that are attracted to the lilac blossoms. The bees scare away the butterflies.
