Calming.<br /><br />Well I love how things are coming along in your garden. I would be more useless than the cats in the garden, but I would probably plop down next to them to enjoy that lovely spot of sunshine. Cute.

That has got to be nice! Everything looks so nice (probably because you were being supervised!!). Our gardens are looking like jungles now.

It always surprises me how people feel free to "enjoy" flowers someone else has planted and taken care of. We have some rose bushes along the sidewalk and the blooms are almost always pruned by passers-by!Bonnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11608328439375705263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32972710.post-16222169309372213372017-07-03T10:32:18.792-04:002017-07-03T10:32:18.792-04:00We finally got the herb garden in (or, Rick did), ...We finally got the herb garden in (or, Rick did), just in time to leave it for a few days.

Mine go to weeds quickly in this heat. The deer are also devouring my hostas at the rate of one a night.

We like perennials because they keep coming back unless the rabbits eat them up. Right now we are trying to get rid of lemon balm which has taken over the one garden and choked out lots of pretty perennials...ugh.karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09252685705241032079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32972710.post-78160163628935616042017-07-02T17:30:46.908-04:002017-07-02T17:30:46.908-04:00Jetsam is so funny with his shadowy fur!

Unfortunately, EVERYTHING has up and died. I think the concrete just radiates more heat than the poor plants could stand.<br /><br />I NEED A YARD!!!!

My house had a lot of plants when I moved here. I loved the shasta daisies but did not like the hordes of grasshoppers that they attracted. Now, I'm limited to having five large pots of geraniums on the front porch. They are easy care and don't break the bank to replace every year.
