A purple finch or a house finch came to check out the bird feeder

The morning glories I transplanted seem to have survived the transplanting and heavy downpours

This giant, green tongue was identified by PlantNet as Sow Thistle. It's a weed that can grow up to 3 ft. tall and has clumps of flowers that look like dandelions. Leaves, flowers, and roots are edible.

A Great Blue Heron flew over the house! I was too slow to get a picture.
Himself decorated his little house with fairy lights
Pavers inside
Make shift bench or shelves. Help, me Lord, he has tools!
Tomatoes, peppers, and other green things
The transplanted morning glories seem to be doing well. Hopefully, they really are morning glories and not wild morning glories (aka Devil's Weed, Bind Weed). Something thinks they are tasty. Himself said he found some holes in the leaves of the pepper plants. He thinks made by slugs. He will spray the plants with a solution of kaolin clay and water which won't harm the plants, but won't make them tasty for the critters.

Who will get to the wild blackberries first, us or the critters?
How does your garden grow?
Looks like a good wake. Hope you can keep your husband and his tools under control! Valerie
ReplyDeleteI think it's a losing battle 😺
DeleteI really enjoy this weekly stroll through your garden. Thanks for sharing! :D
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoy it
DeleteWell How Peaceful Is That Yard - Score On The Mini Greenhouse - Way Cool
ReplyDeleteCheers
I live in a small, rural, farming town so it's very peaceful out here.
DeleteYou've got so much going on! I think that greenhouse will at least triple your opportunities :)
ReplyDeleteThe greenhouse and gardening will keep Himself off the streets
DeleteLooks good. Your hubby will be very busy!
ReplyDeleteI wonder why they call it a purple finch?
Someone didn’t know his colors
DeleteThe little greenhouse is looking so cute! Well done! That's interesting about that one weed growing 3 feet tall! Wow! Everything is looking amazing CJ! Big Hugs!
ReplyDeleteAmazing what several days of rain and then sun will do to the plants
DeleteIsn't it great to see the garden green and flowering? The greenhouse is looking fantastic. I bet next spring it will be put to a lot of us. Hope it was a super day.
ReplyDeleteHimself is enjoying planning what's going in his little house
DeleteI am in AWE of your husband's tools. I like that they are battery powered, so no need for electricity out in the new greenhouse. I'm a tool gal, so they really made my day!
ReplyDeleteHimself likes that he's not tethered to a cord
DeleteI want one of those little houses (greenhouse). Ive always wanted one for as long as I can remember.
ReplyDeleteLove the sunrise picture, the tree is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
