A Peek In The Garden Tonight…..
Last night I picked the first lettuce and spinach from my garden, woo hoo!!
Isn’t it beautiful?!! I put this bit of lettuce in a planter on my deck. It’s SO easy to pick right outside the door, especially on a rainy day.
I try to plant as many things from seed as possible. I’ve got flowers going in this tray. See those teeny tiny geraniums? Believe it or not they will grow into large flowers quickly because I use the hell outta Miracle Gro ;-) Love that stuff for immediate gratification!
The ducks have a favorite nest right now in the midst of my hollyhocks. I don’t mind them in the large, established flowers unless they start to “drill” and dig up everything in their path!
And what’s a garden without Irises? I hope your garden is growing!

Lettuce already?! I’m still waiting for the last frost…
My rhubarb, however, is prolific!
