My nasturtiums are getting bigger. No blooms just yet. The red things you see in the background are actually my first tomatoes from my garden. I just returned yesterday from 12 days in Alaska. It was beautiful there, sometimes I had to pinch myself to remind me that everything around me was real. The photo below was taken outside of a lodge near Mt McKinnley. I was there right after summer solstice, so they had almost 24 hours of sunlight. Combine that with cooler weather (60-70's) and they grow some very large plants in a very short amount of time. I would ask what certain plants were, only to find out they were the same thing I had in my own garden...only super sized!

Wow, you have the lushest foliage of anyone I've seen. And I'm envious about the tomatoes. :)
Monica beat me to it -- as soon as I saw your photo I thought how much bushier and more lush your 'Spitfires' are than mine.
Wish I could take credit for those, but the really bushy ones were a picture I took in Alaska, where everything grows big.
That looks like a nice healthy plant you got there. Hopefully they start to bloom soon.
