Florida Fall Gardening

Fall in Florida must be how the weather in heaven feels. After a very humid and hot summer these small cold fronts are much welcomed. In Florida our growing season can easily be year round since our winters are so mild. This is my first fall garden and is a bit smaller than the spring garden.


I decided to narrow my plants down to 3-4. I have beans growing in the back, then zucchini, and collards in the front. One of the most interesting things I've found about gardening is just seeding how different plants grow. For instance, cucumber and zucchini seem like they would grow similarly, right? Nope, cucumbers vine and zucchini grows in a bush (like squash)!

Everything seems to be growing well and I am waiting on the first blossoms! I think I should have lots of pole beans coming soon. Does anyone else have a fall garden going? Do you can any of your bounty?
