raised beds doing OK

The little 4' x 10' raised bed in the back yard has been such a delight. Every day there is a little more growth - some small surprise of a new flower or fruit. 

The corn has been growing so fast. From day to day you can actually see the growth. Just recently, the male flowers have popped out on top of the stems.

The female flowers (the "silk") have just recently appeared over the tiny ears. 

 

The bush beans have a few beans on each of the plants.

The tomatoes have a few small green fruits...

The sweet banana peppers have born fruit as well -  a few look ready to pick soon.
