The garden is quiet these days.

The plum tree is almost done. The central garden has been done for weeks and all that needs care and watering now are the veggies ( planted in pots to avoid feeding the gophers) and the compost bins.

The front hedge had it’s cut this morning so it’s all straight and perfect. Something Scottie prefers. Left to me it would look like a hippie instead of a marine. I like the little pink flowers it puts out. So do the bees.

Still. I wander around and cut flowers for my weekly “icky bana” arrangement.
Last weeks.

The sweet peas are lovely along the back fence this year. I keep forgetting to put some more in for a continuous show. Think I’ll have to put them somewhere else as I need that shelf they’re growing in just now. It will make a good spot for our veggie pots this winter. Movable and Cassius won’t be able to water them.

We have more of summer ahead but not much. I can feel it turning. The winds have been cold the last few days.
Time to start knitting socks again.
