Welcome to the Heart of the Matter Online Meme.
Every Friday we will feature a different topic for our meme. Please share with us your thoughts on the following: What’s in Your Garden?
Remember last week when I mentioned how wonderful the weather had been? Well, before the rain came we had a chance to build flower beds and carefully pick the greenery that we would enjoy this summer. Having only lived in the Midwest a little over a year I have been enjoying planting things that the southern heat refuses to nurture.
If you have ever visited my website you know that I love poppies. (Actually, I love anything and everything that is red!) These do not grow in areas that have extreme heat. I was elated to find out they grew wonderfully here! I planted several of those, lavender, peonies, snapdragons, dahlias, freesia, hydrangeas and wisteria. (Oh, and calla lillies!) I am so looking forward to all of their blooms!!
What is in your garden?
Blogs that Responded:
OH how LOVELY your flowers sound!
We enjoy beautiful azaleas here!
As for the veggie garden, I WISH I were as apt as many of you.
Having had our last six babies in seven years…the time for developing large, organized, beautiful gardens has not been present. We are “edging our way” back into it now, with a little happy plot of our favorite salsa ingredients and a bit more!
Tomatoes, onions, lettuce, jalapenoes, squash and zukes!
Mmmm…where’s the bag of tortilla chips? LOL
