First Cucumbers

Earlier today I was thinking that the mini-white cucumbers should be ready soon, so I took a peek under the leaves


and found these


and there are plenty more on the plants that will ripen in no time, including this marketmore


Cucurbits are also making their presence felt in the front garden; whilst the courgettes are coming thick and fast, I haven't had any summer squash, and it's summer now!! The leaves are huge


and the pumpkin plants, which have small fruits on them, are starting to blaze a trail across the lawn


I knew that they grew large but I'm not sure I was expecting them to scramble so much.
