A Walk Among the Gourds
The gourd garden path on August 20, 2020
The August heat is baking everything except the hanging gourd garden, which has used it as an opportunity to fill out the overhead trellis with vines and fruit (so much it’s sagging in places).

A couple of weeks ago I wasn’t sure which gourds were growing (I don’t label very well), but now that they’re dropping down, I can see that we’ve got the three B’s — birdhouse, bowl and bottle — gourds growing.
Looks like I’m going to have a gourd forest come fall.
