Activity in the Garden: Blossoms, Buds, and Baby Fruit

Here are my cayenne peppers - lots of long green peppers.


The nasturtiums have been so bright and cheery with lots of blossoms.


Sungold tomato- can't wait!


Lots of chili red peppers growing straight up in the air.


A female cucumber flower waiting to be pollinated by bees.  You can see the fruit at the bottom of the flower, which means it is female.  The male flowers are on the same plant and provide the pollen.  Once this is accomplished by the pollinator (me?) then the flower will fall off and the cucumber will develop.


A yellow bell pepper flower.  The plant has really not grown much, but it looks like I may have some peppers anyway!
