My post back in Feb. about the compost around the flowers, well it did work. I have new delphinium and a couple of new coneflwoers. I have David phlox and they are taller and I have a couple of new little ones. There are a lot of hollyhocks that were planted late summer. DD has a couple really...

Drinking coffee and had breakfast, which was really too heavy feeling. I had Malt-O-Meal with salt and butter and 2 boiled eggs. I went through the garden earlier and I think I over watered last night. I almost thought it had rained. I pulled breakfast for the rabbit of many different things...

I had coffee and found lots of raspberries. I went around on the other side and ate a bunch of them. The garden is really growing. I saw a black hollyhock that has opened and a purple cosmos. A black-eyed Susan is almost open.

I am so sorry. I lost my best friend 2 years ago and we had been friends for 50 years.

I am still drinking coffee and being lazy. We have been getting rain on and off all morning. It is 60 degrees. I went out and fed the rabbit and looked at the garden and it is really wet out. I found 1 red raspberry to eat.

I had my coffee and I brought in all the red Russian kale and got it blanched and in the freezer. I beat the aphids. Usually I wait too long and aphids ruin most of the red Russian. I left some of the curly leave kale out there. We have used some in soup lately and I give a leaf now and then to...

I looked up wild delphinium and found rocket larkspur and it sure looks like it. I took a few more pictures. The white is growing right next to the beans, so I cut the picture trying to not show bean leaves.

Where it is located, I had to have planted it there. I have another purple one in another place with a white one next to it. DS took a picture for me and said it was a delphinium and it is not. What can it be?

Coffee done and I have been out tying up tomato plants and putting more strings up for the beans. Going back out to see what else needs to be done. It is 73 degrees, so it is very nice outside.

Thank you both. I will do that. I will cut some off and see if they regrow and get the rest out before they bolt.

I have some Nagasaki Late Chinese Cabbage ready to harvest. Nobody is going to eat it except for me. I am planning on freezing it and eating soup with it this winter. Should I cut it off at the base and let it regrow back? Will it grow more leaves? Should i just pull the plant and plant...

DD's baby breath bloomed and to me does not look like the pretty pictures and looks like a weed. LOL I am not sure mine will bloom this year, but it is growing. DD saw hers with the white flowers and said SO PRETTY, so she is happy with hers.

It feels cooler today. The last 2 days we had hot in the 90s. I think it will be close to that today, but cloudy and feels nice outside right now. I have had a cup of coffee and getting ready to go back outside. I will have some Sun Gold cherry tomatoes real soon. Things look good and I have a...

I will be the cat lady if DS and his wife ever move. LOL

DD and I were just talking about we have not had a thunder storm. All spring we have had some rain, but we have not heard thunder or seen any lightening. I told her that is what I miss about living in Oklahoma, but after reading your storm story, I am less homesick for storms. LOL
