rampant growth of the garden

Beds of on choy with two rows of taro plants popping out obstructing the view of our koi pond in the background, and long beans with some amaranth growing out of the on choy in the foreground.

Cucumber.

Six chili plants, differing varieties. Habanero, jalapeno, California long, seranno, chaotian, and some kind of round pepper that's only just now flowering. Maybe I shouldn't have planted these beneath a tall jujube tree that is blocking their sunlight.

This vegetable bed has two rows of chili plants with a crude irrigation ditch in the center.

Here is another vegetable bed showing the results of haphazardly strewn chili seeds.

Gorgeous Asian eggplants.

Daikon on the left, then a vegetable, then a raspberry plant, with amaranth at edges. It's a little ironic that the raspberry plant is the first thing I planted there and nothing else was intentionally planted, yet now they're all outgrowing the poor raspberry plant.

Quite a different story for the blackberry plants, which are thriving despite the other vegetables that sprouted from nowhere.

Concord grape plant that I hope will bear fruit. I think I planted all of these too late.
