good for you. I love getting back into the gardens. Our precipitation
has been bouncy; first lots of rain, then nothing for weeks, then more.
Same with the heat. And, armies of mosquitoes.



I agree about the feel of the gardens; not just the control but also the
pleasure and satisfaction of seeing plants progress to full bloom and
then seed. My property is not very large, around 1 1/2 - 3/4 acres but I
am gradually constructing rooms and paths. Going to work on it more as
my energy grows.



What are the new plants you are playing with along your path?

I spent yesterday morning from about 8 am until noon playing in the 
garden. Actually managed to weed one whole section before being forced 
back inside due to the heat and humidity.. and mosquitoes. Not too badly 
bitten. 

I think all gardeners feel much better when they can get back into the 
action of being in their gardens with some sense of control. Perhaps not 
so much in their personal lives, but at least in the garden. 

I am wanting to play with some new plants in a raised bed along a path, 
but it will not ease up on the rain long enough for the soil to dry out 
so it can be worked. This time want to play with some tall perennials to 
help define a room and close off a view as one comes around a circle. 
Think I have the plants worked out... at least in my mind. Reality check 
will be next as I move plants into position for transplanting.
