Just the flowers? How about my nice and very neat veggie garden?

The cages and organization are also great!!! I will be over for a nice meal in July!!

July cookout! I eat lots and lots of tomatoes as soon as they are ripe. I eat tomato sandwiches, tomato and cucumber salad and just eat tomatoes like you would eat an apple. I love tomatoes!

This Lacy Phacelia picked a nice spot to share some blooms.



Sundrops from an ATP friend.



The Herbalist is blooming...I'd wanted this rose for a long time.



It's supposed to cool off a bit this week, so I'm hoping to be able to get more of my assorted seedlings in the ground.

Just BEAUTIFUL, Chelle!

Love the color of that rose.

Sundrops in profusion...heaven!

Just beautiful Rita,

waves starting to fill in the tank and bowl,I need more color on the ground

Fantastic, Rita!! gorgeous roses and is that Nepeta loving the wall?

Very pretty Clematis, Tam! Is it a Jack?

I had to laugh at the toliet bowl planter. But everything looks great, so pretty.

No humidity. Biy would I love low humidity but we get a steambath here on humid Long Island.

Sweet shot of the Jackmanii, Tam.



I did a bit of transplanting this morning, even though we've still had no rain. I'm really appreciating all of our shade trees right now...as I drive about the countryside, I see such amazing scenes of drought - for us??...in May?? So very strange, and a bit scary when contemplating what it may look like in August.



Nice profusion of roses, Rita!

The hot (and very humid) weather these past two days has really caused my pole beans to grow like mad. It feels like July and August what with the heat and humidity but I guess beans like it. I am growing five types of beans. All in big pots. One type to each big pot. And then I decided to try melons again. I haven't grown melons in about 12 years but I used to grow them. They are best growing up a trellis.

I have been meaning to pop in a few times and then I always get sidetracked with all kinds of threads to look at

My 1 year old garden is my version of a cottage garden, I have been posting it's progress in the blog section here, oldest post at the bottom of course: http://garden.org/blogs/view/C...

WOW!!! Beautiful!!

Sue, so lush and gorgeous!! Which Kniphofia is that?

I want to move to California....right now!

It is beautiful Sue, just beautiful. I don't know how you were able to get so much done in such a short time.

I've been following along, as I'm able to.

It's looking lovely, Sue.

Thanks ladies!
Janice, I have no idea what kniphofia that is, my Mom dug it up from her garden when it got too big for her and she gave it to me. It was one of the first things I planted as it came over in a plastic bag. I just popped it in next to a large boulder and designed around it. I am just tickled pink that it actually is blooming along with that blue achusa behind it as it makes a striking combo, I actually got something right the first go-around!
