Buried Treasure

Our garden squash leaves are 10 inches across and already overflowing their tree beds.  The tomato plants are 3 feet tall. 

Is that a spot of yellow?  Hmmm.  I take a closer look under the canopy of velvet leaves smelling of summer.  The sight takes my breath away.  Yellow Squash Blossoms! They are everywhere. 

A scant two months ago, there was nothing here but earth that had been under concrete sidewalk slabs for over 90 years.  Not a leaf and not a weed.  

Just add seeds, sun, and water.  Protect with bamboo sticks and a string.
