We are back homeside after being away for a couple of weeks. It wasn't the ideal time to go away with respect to the garden but it was a much needed break for us. I can't believe what a difference a bit of time away from the gardens made. Apparently we got a fair amount of rain because the lawns look lovely. They are nice and green! The herb bed is doing wonderful and I just picked oodles of hot peppers for canning. The tomatoes didn't fare as well with too much rain that caused splitting. Still there were a few stragglers to pick. I did end up losing my potted grapevine and one horseradish but all of a sudden my onions are back. So it's been an interesting return to my home garden after having a bit of fun at my vacation garde :)
Happy Gardening!

Neighbours talking over the garden gate has long been a tradition. They share gardening tips, complain about the weather and pests yet are ever eager to discuss their gardens. That is what I had in mind when creating this blog. So stop by my garden gate to find out the latest happenings in my garden.
Happy Gardening!
