How does Your Garden Grow?



A beautiful sunset


The milkweeds had fallen over Ink's statue so I staked them up. Is it just the milkweeds in my garden, or do they all fall over?


Garden kites in a row


The new granite lantern post. Waiting for the electrician to come and connect the lights.


Looks like zucchini for supper this week.


The Little Shop of Horrors Zucchini


Tiny tomatoes


Tomatoes, cukes, and peppers. Oh, my!


I was behind Ink's garden taking pictures. This little fellow didn't seem to mind and wasn't afraid.


I asked the dragonfly if I could take his picture, and he posed for me.



A crop of morning glories


Clean water in the birdbath.


Heavy thunderstorms produced lots of rain.


A new, little visitor showed up.


And since today is my birthday, a garden flag to celebrate. Hey, Kid! Will you still need me? Will you still feed me? When I'm 64?

How does your garden grow?

      Thank you. It had been hot and humid though not as hot as what you went through. The veggies seemed to like that weather a lot

    Happy Birthday! Your gardens look great. It's nice getting to eat home grown vegetables. That rabbit is adorable. An unforecast thunder storm rolled in here yesterday early afternoon, but it stayed north of me, so I didn't have any rain where I am in Connecticut.

      Thank you. We had an unscheduled thunderstorm roll north of us, too. We had a sprinkle and a clap of thunder.

    Happy, happy birthday, CJ. Your garden looks better than mine. I got sick after mowing all day Friday, so that's why the late visit. I'm still sick.

    Your garden is looking good! And I always love to see pics of your bunnies and other critters as well! It looks like things are coming together with your renovations!

      I was pleasantly surprised to see the bunny. I hadn’t seen any since early March. I thought perhaps all the construction we had going on scared them away. Maybe now that’s it’s quiet again in the yard, they’re coming out of hiding

    I try but always fail to get photos of the dragonflies. I am always happy to see them and trust they're making my patio less mosquito-friendly lol Your photo-taking skills put mine to shame :)

    Your veggies are a wonder!

      I only use the iPhone camera so no skill is involved there. I asked the dragonfly if I could take his picture and he waited for me to set up.
