Good Morning, Garden!

My backyard in the morning.

Here is a pumpkin that looks more like a watermelon.

Here is the pumpkin that grew first. He is the biggest. Still about the size of a large onion.
I don't remember what kinds these are, as they grew all over each other, but I have about 10 different species in here.

I was so worried that the bee's wouldn't find my pumpkins (if they didn't, that would mean the fruit would wither up and die) so I went to the nursery and bought a plant that attracts bees. When I got home and went to plant it, the bees were already there. They love these big flowers.

There is a whole world under the big leaves full of green light.

There's a baby pumpkin! The thing hanging off of it is a female flower.

These little curly vines grab onto everything they can find, even the weeds.
