The amazing Watermelon Cat™️ (1) inspects each watermelon and (2) indicates the one that’s ripe and ready to be picked.

The same cat now sits beside a different watermelon and stares at it.

An orange and white cat walks along and glances down at a small round watermelon.

Finally, after a crazy long wait, it's ripe! I took this photo right before cutting the pineapple off the plant. It was perfumey-sweet and delicious. We enjoyed it immensely. It's amazing how fast tasty fruit disappears in our house. 😆 And yes, I'll be saving the top of this one to grow a fourth plant to add to our little pinery.

A ripe pineapple, golden all over except for its "tophat" of greenery, rises up on a stalk in the middle of a pineapple plant. The fruit is surrounded by the plant's long, narrow green leaves.

This is your seasonal reminder that all acorns are edible. Many acorns require leaching. For instructions on how to leach acorns and recipe ideas, see the thread below.

Kombu dashi infused steamed daylily bulbs with culantro confetti. They are a yellowish green with green speckles.

Kombu dashi infused steamed carrots with ginger. They are sliced finely with ginger on top.

Southern live oak acorn noodles shaped into cubes with black sesame and wheat so they appear almost black.

So many huckleberries!

I got the plant at a native plant sale 9 years ago. It barely measured 2 in (5 cm). I honestly forgot about it, until years later the Kid read about the existence of huckleberry pie.

While figuring out where to go picking... I recalled I had one plant in the backyard! We got a handful of berries that year. I could not see how to get enough for a pie!

The plant has since then put a couple feet in height... and many many more berries 😊

Close-up of the branch of a huckleberry bush. The branch is completely lined with berries at different stages of maturity as indicated by different colors, ranging from green to brown to dark purple.

Two small plastic containers (aprox a cup each) full with small dark purple berries. The containers are placed on top of a concrete brick edging a vegetable bed.

Macro photograph of an open flower of tickseed (Coreopsis), with a yellow and black centre and pink blue petals. A greenish crabspider is standing on the petals on the right side, its head up and looking at the camera with two eyes. It is probably hunting or waiting for a prey with legs stretched but looking as if it is putting its arms around the centre of the flower, defending and guarding its flower. The background is green.

Tomatoes. They should have been red a month ago, but better late than never. #gardening

A photograph of a mess of tomato leaves and shoots. Among it all are several groups of tomatoes. Most are green, but some are red.

I forgot! We have a pear tree! And it's full of pears right now!

I wasn't sure if they were ripe yet or not. I just went outside and picked a couple of pears, they're delicious!

@cwebber Thanks for the reminder to harvest the pears before they get mealy! I didn’t thin out the pears this year, so I got mostly smaller fruit, but they are delicious. Just need to go in the fridge to chill.

A group of brown, slightly curled leaves, gently lobed. They are hydrofuge, that is they repel water, and some raindrops have pooled and lingered after the rain.

@quixoticgeek Copying the request into #gardening :

"do any of the Germans here have a garden in which they are growing pumpkins? If so, could you take a photo of your pumpkin plant, and your vegetable garden please?"
