from the garden

We were graced with rain today, buckets full. I was so happy for my garden, I think the tomatoes were smiling when I glanced their way when locking the gate on my way home.

What is green and growing in our garden:

-A watermelon!

-Cucumbers and tomatoes, with bunches of big green tomatoes waiting their turn to blush.

-Zinnias! I love these ladies in my garden. Some are from seed, while others were starts from the nursery. Next year I will use only seed.

-Herbs and lavender are clean and happy with the rain and humid heat the last week has provided.

-At home, a rescued pomegranate who had lost all her leaves, is green again! Not too sure if the sun is enough where I planted her, but I think pomegranates were made to make do.
