More planting!

The last bit of digging in the garden today!! Planted 6 rows of romano beans, 2 rows of stringless green beans. All the rows in the garden are done! Bought some black earth to cover the leeks with. It looks so nice! The potatoes are starting to bloom. Watermelon looks great. The previous beans I planted have been feasted on by rabbits. We think they were coming in through a hole (small) in the fence. Have to patch it up.
Planted lots and lots of eggplants today, partly as a trap crop, partly as an eating crop. The flea beetles love them! I think they are mostly gone now though. Also planted more celery, habanero peppers and flax flowers. Can't wait to see what the garden looks like in a month!
