I haven't taken any pics lately.. I did start rooting some suckers off of a couple of my favorite plants, began this morning. Should have a healthy late crop this year also.

Artichokes finished up awhile back. Left a couple on the plant to try to get some seeds. They flower kinda cool.

The constant heat is doing a number on my garden right now. Low fruiting year from my all Nectarine's, decent year for my Plums and Pluot trees. Every year is different.
