More showers, more flowers

Well, the rain hasn't really let up over the past week and most notable was a fierce storm Sunday evening that knocked out power at the Row. The blooms keep on appearing though so I am happy. Above and below are some images of a flower on one of my pumpkin plants.
This beautiful image is of an okra bloom, a vegetable I've never grown before. I was finally able to catch a picture of this Arctotis 'Sun Spot', which only opens fully during the day. As you can see, my garden is really filling in and making for some cool plant combos.
This is a jamming little corner in my garden right now. Especially with the Gloriosa superba 'Rothschildiana' heating up the scene. This thing is so hot its practically on fire!
Another great combo with huge pumpkin leaves setting a perfect backdrop for the fennel going to seed and, of course, my weekly shot of how much my garden has grown.
