garden of earthly delights
the latest news from the garden...
here are some of the lilies currently rioting across the back fence. thank you, deer off, for protecting them from evil. this closeup sort of looks like the kind of thing you'd find on a greeting card.
this is a shot of one of the raised beds paul built me. i had the idea that i'd plant a cutting garden. the cosmos are going great guns, very satisfying. the zinnias, though, are a little too dwarfy to be useful for cutting. next year i'll plant something different.
here's the front bed, complete with purple glass birdbath. (it originally looked very naked, but then the bee balm got tall enough to camouflage it some.)
i've been spending zero time working out in the garden, but the mulching i did early in the season seems to have paid off in terms of weed control.

amazing!
call Hallmark, they may need the picture

I'm highly envious of your lilies and cosmos. How come even your (alleged) weeds are invisible??

I am curious as to what this actually means:
"thank you, deer off, for protecting them from evil."
