Lots going on in the garden!

Butternut squash plant
Geranium plant that I transplanted out of the pot it has been living in for years.  I hope I don't kill it the first year it is in the garden!  I am trying to set up one bed that is just for perennial flowers.
A chrysanthemum that I bought in winter and had potted and in the house.
A volunteer potato plant that came up from a seed potato that I obviously forgot to harvest last year.  This one is coming up from the bed that I had decided to devote to  compost. So now I guess it is devoted to compost and a potato plant.
 My three-year-old asparagus plants.
Summer patty pan squash.
Last year's rhubarb making a comeback (also in the bed designated for compost).












I also have an eggplant and a pepper plant that I haven't put in yet, as well as a number of seeds planted that I'll transplant out after they germinate and are big enough to withstand being outside, including some melon plants and some cucumbers.

The fruit trees are all in bloom and/or starting to fruit, so it looks like all is in order!
