LOVE the blue morning glory! I tried gardening for the first time this year. Most of my plants committed suicide, but my geraniums are still going strong. Gardener high-five!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately this year I only planted a couple of things in pots (trying to stay focused on our ripped up inside of the house instead of getting distracted by all I want to do outside too) but they didn't survive my five week trip to Utah. I guess Scott and the little neighbor girl could only keep the pets alive in our absence. Yours look great though!
ReplyDeleteOne word says it all--grasshoppers. The voracious critters gorged their ugly little bodies on my hostas, peonies, pole beans, etc. I must say, though, that declaring war on them and spraying them with almost-organic insecticide felt really good.
