It is a warm and windy day today, and I cannot seem to scratch my gardening itch that is telling me to PLANT THE GARDEN out already!
Unfortunately, I did not get around to buying xeriscaping plants for my front yard landscaping this year (both due to a loss of time and money.) But something that is WAY cheaper than buying fully mature landscaping plants is planting heat tolerant seeds that can provide food for the family!
Despite having dry, sandy, alkaline soil, I have successfully grown crops in my front yard landscaping before…it all comes down to varieties and amendments that you can add to get them off to the right start.

You are growing a nice variety of plants☺️
I think the squash will make it. I had success with watermelon last year. Although vine bores did get the majority of them. I pretty much did the same thing by planting them in my local soil (aka: sand with some raised bed soil). Good luck.
Decorative vs Edible — Food is necessary, decorations is not. I've been working on growing enough food to feed me all year. Only now I am starting to throw some flowers here and there.
Everything looks great.
That’s funny that you said your loofah didn’t come up. I planted six cells this year and only got maybe two out of it. This is my first year for growing loofah so we’ll see what happens.
