Gardening in the sun (and heat)

Goldfinch at kettle fountain



Purple iris and salvia

Last of the clematis

A rose is a rose is a rose

( A Gertrude Stein quote I think)


Got out to my garden early this morning. It was 72 when I woke up and overcast...looked like rain. There was a nice breeze and I got all the work that I had planned done before the sun came out and the temperature jumped into the 80s. In fact, it got up to 90 according to my thermometer.

Got the back planted and tomorrow I plan on doing my front bed. Can only do so much at a time, then I have to drag my weary body inside to rest.

Sure wish my porches were set up...perfect for sitting out. My flag is flying in the breeze. Happy Memorial Day weekend everyone!
