And while we were gone it went crazy! I always think it needs my daily minute attention in order to flourish, but really it just needs sun and a bit of water.
My Touch of Class roses bloomed! I've been waiting and waiting for them after a rough spring when Dizzy destroyed several of the main stems, but it recovered nicely and is lovely. It has a hint of spice to it and I got to see it by moonlight the first night we got home .
The sunflowers bloomed while we were away and they also grew a few feet. Seriously, some of them are over eight feet tall and still growing.
I actually have one nice looking tomato, which, for all you Ohioans is nothing, but I'm quite proud.
No surprise about the zucchini and yellow squash going crazy, but it still surprises me how quickly the leaves get huge.
Even the broccoli, beans and marigolds we planted from seeds look great. And then there's my favorite, garlic. Greg picked most of it before we got home, but he left a few to bloom. I just love the way they look when they bloom.
Greg and Lily took some pictures of the garden too; Lily even used my Nikon and did a pretty good job.
You can tell how absolutely thrilled Jasper is to be back in the garden! It's a good thing he's cute!
