May has arrived

 It has been cool, grey and damp for a week now.  Everything in the garden is healthy, but nothing is growing quickly due to the grey skies.

We added a mulch 'walk way' across the front yard, with some nice stepping stones.  It looks good and has reduced the amount of grass.  It gives us a walking path between garden areas.  Another one will probably follow.

These purple flag (iris) are blooming nicely, but I have to admit, I do not remember planting them in the flower bed beside the driveway.  However, there are three nice clumps of them out there.

Tomatoes and corn look good, but are growing slowly.  I cut my first bunch of cilantro today.  One cucumber plant is up, but no squash yet.

I have sunflowers and moon flowers growing inside.  Both may be ready for the garden this weekend.
