back to the garden!

The high today was ~70 deg F. For the last 3 weeks, its been noticeably cooler - and its like the garden, and the gardener, can let out a big sigh...

And enjoy some things that look great after the long, hot summer:






And some things that need a bit of help:


The list of things that need doing:

  • Fix pipe
  • Trim acacias & uncover agaves in the front
  • Clean up the 'stone pond' bed in the front garden
  • Trim up Palo Verde tree
  • Clean up right back patio bed
But before I start on that whole list, I'm going to sit on the patio, without getting a 3rd degree burn! Here's to gardens that still love their gardeners after only admiring them from inside the whole summer!

  2. The weather has been wonderful, hasn't it?! You're quite right to take some time to enjoy it before you plunge into those projects.
