The flowers more than make up for it though. I finally tackled my neglected garden(s) today. I have the front garden, the perennial side garden - which is now also allowed to be home to some rather pretty wildflowers, the perennial front garden - oh dear, what to do, and my poor old vegetable garden in the back, which is now home only to a giant rhubarb plant, a sorrel? plant, and some wild rose bushes. Being sick in May meant I missed the optimum time for preparing the old raised beds,which means the weeds have thus been able to run riot through my yard. (I don't use weed killer.)
No, there will be no vegetable garden this year, just one big pot filled with herbs and an one old bed in front of said veggie garden, filled with chives. (I just had this odd thought pop into my head. I actually remembered learning how to spell the word vegetable, and I also remembered spelling potatoes as potatos on my spelling test and getting it marked wrong -for the last time. Although, I sometimes think that keyboarding has made me into a terrible speller.)
Here are a few close-up pics of my perennials. I like these spidery looking flowers.
