Early August in the Garden

We had a very cool and dry spring here in the DMV which impacted the vegetables in particular. I am sure the tomatoes suffered because they are a tropical plant. I have also noticed the dahlias are much smaller this year, but that is actually okay for me because they aren't all falling over and looking messy. What has not suffered is the sunflowers, they are looking so good. And the strawberries are coming back! I had a fantastic crop in May, we were eating them everyday. I knew I have a mix of June bearing and everbearing in my little plot so the everbearing are the plants that are flowering again.
