I think I have already confessed my garden neglect this year, so we'll not go into it again. Even my
beloved herb garden is being a bit overcome with weeds. I have some excuses... wanna hear them? I have been
working, I have been kinda down, it's too darn hot! That's a pretty good one, don'tcha think? But, nevertheless, plants (once planted) will grow on.


Calendula. We have really sensitive skin in my house, so next year I think I'll be growing gobs of calendula.

Borage. I planted it because I had read it makes things it grows near taste better. So, beside the tomatoes it went.

And, tomatoes. Not bearing just yet. I can't wait! There are also several wild vines of cucumbers growing on the other side of them. I
love cucumber season! And they're producing like crazy.

Cosmos, and I think that's some wild red clover and a morning glory in there, as well. My girls could pick flowers all day.

I think we're getting down to the last of the blackberries, which makes me quite sad. But, mostly the girls have gone to edge of the woods where they grow and eaten them straight away. Oh, well. Kaiya made this 'salad' for me. I love that it is all actually edible, instead of the twig and pine cone soup she usually brings to me.
What's growing in your garden?

We also have sensitive skin, very much so- and we grow calendula and it is a staple! You can never have too much. Also, it's pretty.
I love coming here. :)

We have an abundance of green tomatoes at the moment, lots of great zuchini spikes getting ready to grow and crazy beans doin' their thing on some tomato cones we had left over...We also sampled our first cayenne pepper last night. The brothers loved it, while I nearly threw a fit, and promptly shoved some pierogies and sour cream in my mouth to stifle the heat!
I love summer for the gardening...and as Stephanie said: in 6 months you would never believe that it all existed under the blankets of snow!
Peace & Sugar Snap Peas!
