How Does Your Garden Grow?

 

At the Solstice, the tree graphic changed from a pink blooming tree to green leaves.


Green things growing. Broccoli and lettuce.


Who will get to the tomato first? Timex, the chipmunk or Himself.


A lone bee enjoys the milkweed blossoms


A bejeweled web sparkles in the sunlight. The picture doesn't do it justice


Either the remains of a snack or someone left an acorn gift.


Amazing sunset


Some thing is nibbling all the morning glories leaves. Himself has been spraying the plants with Neem oil.


I found these fun plant buddies in a catalog and gave them to Himself for Father's Day. A potato relaxes in the tomato.


Happy eggplant


Smiling cucumber.


Pensive carrot among the green things


and a pumpkin peeks through the lettuce.

How does your garden grow?

  1. Your garden buddies are so much fun CJ. I like their little faces and a great way to tell one budding plant from another. And you have a tomato. Hurrah. I think that is a honey bee too. Does someone nearish to you have a hive, as they can fly 3 miles looking for pollen. Your garden is looking good. Don't get too hot this week. Summer!!! Hugs-Erika

    1. There used to be a man near the center of town within that range that kept bees, but he had severe hive collapse and closed his business last year. I don't know if anyone in the area has bees.

    1. Hopefully, the Neem oil will make the leaves taste yucky to the bugs

  3. Garden Buddies, what fun! I have a couple of pet rocks, but they're not ones with colors and faces. I hope Himself gets the tomato, but my money's on the chipmunk lol

    1. I couldn't resist the plant buddies. I'm surprised Himself tossed them in with the plants

  5. Plant buddies, what a good idea! A friend gave me a snooze mate - a frog in a swag, as he knows I love frogs and am a bad sleeper - these things help - to your plants. Here... I don´t know. They are green, planted themselves... They just grow, nothing else.

  6. OMGosh. I love those plant buddies. They are so cute and clever, too. Your garden is doing much better than mine. I don't even have a yellow flower on my tomato yet. This is great and congrats on the first tomato of the year.

  7. I want some of those plant buddies! So cute! LOL! Try water and dish soap, to spray on your plant, that is getting eaten! Just put the solution in a spray bottle, you don't need too much soap. Big Hugs!

  8. I love those plant buddies! Garden looks good, except for that leaf that's being eaten by some type of bug. Everything will need lots of water with this withering heat wave. :-(
