These Plants Are Thriving Right Now 🌿 (Mid-Season Garden Tour)

Take a mid-season garden tour with me as I walk through what’s thriving in my garden right now—from productive tomato varieties like Banana Legs, Garden Paste, and Cherry Falls to peppers, cucumbers, beans, and flowers that are finally taking off in the summer heat. In this backyard garden update, I’m sharing what’s growing well, what’s struggling, and how different plants are performing in raised beds, grow bags, self-watering containers, and even my hydroponic system. You’ll see real-time results from companion planting, volunteer plants, and succession planting, plus how I’m managing common garden issues like pests, heat stress, and spacing. If you’re looking for a realistic home garden tour, tomato variety performance, and tips on what thrives in a warm-climate vegetable garden, this mid-season update will give you plenty of insight and inspiration.
