What a beautiful surprise we had while mulching our butterfly garden:

A family of bluebirds has made its home:

If you turn around as you stand in front of the butterfly garden you will see:

Along with one of my new favorite plants...sea holly! Can you see the blue color starting to come up through the stems? In a week or two the whole thing will be a beautiful periwinkle blue! These are great for cutting and drying!

This would be my veggie garden! I am not sure what I like best...watching it grow or spending time with my daddy tending it! Sugar peas and green beans:

Yellow beets and radishes:

Tomatoes, green peppers and yellow squash:

This might not look like much but give it a few weeks...this is the start of my cutting garden...complete with sunflowers, broomcorn, cockscomb, and a bunch of other stuff!

As if I didn't have enough raised beds...I had hubby put in a double decker for more cut flowers!

The beds around the potting shed:


The last bed across the back of our property:

And finally a place to sit and enjoy:

So, this is why I have not been blogging this last week or so.....I had a date with some garden beds while "He walked with me...and talked with me"
Sorry I couldn't resist......
Next time I will make sure to get the dew on the roses. :)
