In the Garden this Month ...

I have quite a few things growing this month ...

Right now there are blue haired ladies 

Surprising Gerber Daisies

Sweet Smelling Gardenias

Stella Lilies 

Lantana

Petunias

Zinnias and ...

Zinnia seedlings

Strawberries 

Garlic 

which I do not think I will be eating, but the flower is beautiful! 

And lettuce, lettuce, and more lettuce

that demands to be picked twice a week! 

Maintenance:

~ Once a week weeding and chopping grass in the garden

~ Once a week maintaining the weeds in the flower beds

~Fertilizing

~ Watering every three days for at least an hour! Thank goodness for our drip systems in our flower beds. I just make sure that my hanging baskets are watered when necessary. 

This is an easy and beautiful month! 

What I look forward to next month:

~ Watching my zinnias grow

~ Picking my green hydrangeas 

~ Picking vegetables from my garden and putting up for winter 

~ Making BLT's and squash.
