Let the growing continue...

The victory garden is beginning to take root.  After a few days of warm weather I saw my first corn sprout and picked my first strawberry of the season.  The greens on the south side of the lawn are looking 'sprout'tastic and will start taking shape soon.  With the growing comes the loss of a few seedlings.  Two of the four Japanese cucumber plants have wilted and passed on.  While the arugula is growing fast and strong, the mesclun classic mix has only a few sprouts.  On a more positive thought, I noticed an abundance of flowers in the tomato and pepper plants tonight and hope to see some fruit pushing out in a few weeks!
