Not many of these around but it's me, NOT in my garden.

This is a much better pic of my dill. The children like to walk by and smell it, lol. Not as much as they do the mint though.

This is my dill. It is very healthy and pretty. It's also the view of my garden from my porch.

I placed colorful plastic tubs in my garden to see if I liked the flash of color, I did!

Seems like it's been forever since I last posted. I have spent many hours in the garden. There are some problems but I do try toconsider them learning instead of failures. I read that somewhere. Blossom end rot and late blight. Tomatoes, peppers, and squash. 'course there has been alot of rain here in central Ar, zone 7. My sunflowers that my daddy started for me are finally 7ft tall and flowering, one is maroon and absolutely beautiful. This is the first year that I have looked for color and I'm finding that I like it. So next year I'll plant many flowers around the perimeter. Here are a few pictures...

Here is Baby Girl in my gardening hat and more of my plants.



Took new pictires of the garden. Iharvested all of my broccoli rabe and will probably wait a bit and plant winter squash. More onions and beets. I am planning to spend all day on the 22nd (according to the Farmer's Almanac, moon phases) planting. Here is a picture of Bull going over the front porch gate and my yellow squash. I gave my first squash to my sister-in-law. I think my brother would have smiled in his gentle way.
