Microgeographies of my summer

I grew cherry tomatoes and three large tomato varieties, okra (grew like a weed), tomatillos (pests set in, I won't try these next year), banana peppers, zucchini (I'll plant more next year but be choosier about the variety), green beans (attack of the Mexican bean beetle), parsley, basil. My blackberries were in the their first year of growth so they did not produce berries. My garden is hemmed in by mint, various Aster species, and some ornamental flowering plants planted by someone who lived in the house before me.
