We are now at three bunnies of different sizes eating in our yard at the same time, rabbit stew anyone? I think the smallest one knows his name "Bunny", and doesn't even run when I come outside. Bunny decided to try the melon- hope it survives. I finally have some butternut squash growing, and a couple of acorn squash. The beans are blooming but slow to grow-only get a handful each time. Fortunately, the tomatoes are pacing themselves.
The hyssops in the berm circle are huge and loaded with bees, of all sorts, but mostly bumbles, and a few butterflies too. Double click on photos for bigger view.

Moved the large spiderwort from the ponds edge, it was too tall for that space, and I was lucky to find some more St. John's wort for its replacement. It is a great pond edging plant!
