Planting Along The Verge

The blues are here.  

The Nigella is flowering. I love this flower so I let it go to seed every year and it’s made it’s way into every corner of the garden.

I managed very little work in the yard this weekend even though the weather was fine. That is until yesterday when I planned on spending some time weeding and discovered it was too hot.  The top of my feet got sunburned and I got dizzy. I managed to weed out most of the Nigella growing in amongst the Thyme and I re-planted all the tulip bulbs the gophers dug up.  Yes, those little bastards are back and they got some of my lettuces.  The tomato is still standing but I don’t hold out much hope.
Gardening can be such a savage pastime.
