I have no doubt that you'll make your new home a garden spot, too. I have my pot garden - mint, cilantro, tomatoes, plus some dahlias, which despite the fact that this know nothing gardener put them in a pot, are growing.<br />Hope your shoulder is doing better!Shari Randallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16425493627354028820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-33485108783969101032018-08-06T13:04:04.073-04:002018-08-06T13:04:04.073-04:00Oh, Kait, red tide and green algae.

It's like a breath of fresh air. <br /><br />We're sweltering here in SW Florida, and with red tide and green algae, there's not much hope of relief. A visit to your garden was the perfect antidote.Kaithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07758348842858993203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-41901418478094176222018-08-06T11:02:06.106-04:002018-08-06T11:02:06.106-04:00Next year for your pot garden!

My herb pots sat in the driveway for 2+ months this year until I could get the deck stained.<br /><br />If it's not the blazing sun and humidity, it's the chigger mites, which have been vicious this year.<br /><br />On Saturday, we visited the Hamilton County seed farm, which collects native wildflower seeds to plant in the county parks. Fascinating.<br /><br />Margaret S.

Linda, I love this blog because you could be writing about what's happening here in NE Ohio. The weather is hot and muggy so I don't spend a lot of time outside except for the few days when it cooled down a little and there was a nice breeze. Of course, I have ponies, chickens, a barn cat and my son's peacock next door to feed every morning and the ponies in the evening, too. Like your gardens I have lots of flowers, too. I put all the annuals I bought in pots or hanging baskets. The other flowers are those who come up every year like a hundred at least day lilies as well as<br />some others, too. I'm sorry you're missing the gardens you so enjoyed. I never plan to leave my old house and the trees, shrubs and gardens around it.Gloria Aldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581719606924364447noreply@blogger.com
