Hi I just did a post showing pictures of the hot summer flowering garden and flowers that take less water. I like to save my water for my vegetable garden, but I still like flowers. Hope your gardens are doing well.

Well, our tomato plants are dying, they are yellow and burnt from the sun. But, the okra plants are thriving. Hope your garden continues to be great.

I absolutely love your garden. I have several of the same pants as you, but mine are interspersed with many unwelcome weeds!!!

Dear Bear5 - I am so sorry about your tomatoes! Here we had such a cool spring and hail that many had to replant. I waited until June. Tomatoes don't like temperatures cooler than 50 or warmer than 90 - fussy things! I hope the rest of your garden does better.

Nubidane and Shunger, Thank you! I've been working on this garden for 18 years. I started the blog about 7 months ago and it has been a fun way to share the garden and also look at other gardens.

What a lovely garden- a beautiful way to "perty up" the curbside!
