WHILE I WAS AWAY

Lately I have been busy putting in my garden, a task which requires me to work a little, rest a little, and take twice as much time as I did in my twenties.


Here we have yellow squash and string beans.


This year I added container strawberries and everbearing strawberries to my June bearing strawberries.



Container strawberries need less space and send our fewer new runner plants.



They are firm and yummy.



The cuttings I took from CBW's beautiful bush are blooming now.



There are flowers in pots too.
Tomatoes, peppers, basil, cilantro, and cucumbers.



Roses bloom...



The view is fantastic...



Basically I am a happy woman.

  1. Ahh, the view, oh yes! And the garden is gorgeous, too, Mary. I just posted a silly poem on my blog about the kind of garden I think I can grow now. Elevated, and not just a foot or two. We may not be 20-somethings any more but I'm grateful we can be happy as ourselves, without yearning for eternal youth.
    Luv, K
