Let Your Garden do the Talking
Your early summer, late spring vegetables are ready for harvest. Stand on your porch. Gaze out on your abundant fresh produce and figure out the answer to the most frequently asked question. “What’s for supper?”
Poppies
I’m on my second year of growing poppies. These majestic yet delicate flowers evoke so many memories for me, especially the profusions of them blanketing the terraces and meadows at the wake of springtime in Lebanon.
Zinnias, the Blue Ribbon Summer Flower
A kiss of the sun for pardon, the song of the birds for mirth, One is nearer God’s heart in a garden, than anywhere else on earth!
Summer Window Boxes
Its hard to create a summer window box that not only survives, but thrives in the Texas heat! I put my mind and trowel to it when a friend asked me to help her out.
Ivy Tower, Not Ivory Tower
“How did you make that ivy tower?” That’s the question I hear each time someone new walks out my back door. Building this tower is your next project for your spring, summer, and fall!
Hope Garden
I’ve dug up my lawn in a strip along the sidewalk leading up to our front door. Why? It’s my experiment to do a seasonal cutting garden propagated from only seeds.
