Work(ing) Garden Update 3 - 07/19/2015

We've had a slowdown in the growth in the garden with less abundant harvests.  However, I think the prize growth is this pineapple.  It's taken months to show its color and although it is the size of an orange, it is I think a full grown pineapple.  It recently started to tilt and according to the web, it is ready to harvest.
Can't believe what looked like some flower on the plant became a real fruit.  This was back in April.
Then it started to look like a pineapple.
Although, I thought it'd get bigger as it starts to turn color, it never got any bigger.
The other new vegetable that have thrived are these long beans.  The new crop isn't as long, but there has been quit a few that has been harvested. 
We've even harvested seeds from dried up beans.  We recently celebrated the one year anniversary of the garden.  Hope this be a continuing effort and we'll be able to celebrate another year.
