sunday, july 22

it was a hot day in the garden.  i was joined by shirley and we did a little of what we do best-weeding!

the vertical garden has been slow to take off this year.  i will have to work on this for next year.

 kabocha squash-unbelievable!!!

 the flowers are so big that 4 bumblebees can get in there and still find nectar.

 the plant is very productive-we will be eating lots of squash!

 look at the basil bed-can you see pesto in your future? i can...

 these are the blooms of the southern wood plant

 tansy

 comfrey gearing up for the second round

 over in the rain garden, the false blue indigo has recovered from its webworm attack

 just look at all of the new growth.

 things are looking good in the shade garden too.  pieris, mountain fire.  love the red foliage

 italian arum-wonder who is eating the berries...

 cleome in the zombie garden 








and of course, cake.  a blueberry muffin cake to be exact.  come and join us some time!
