And veggies and some mighty cute pets, as well!

I am envious of that watermelon. The ones in the stores now just aren't very good, and I love love love watermelon! And those dahlias are just stunning!

I still have hot wax peppers, parsley, and a few bunches of endive. My impatiens containers are starting to wither. Just the ones in the ideal locations still look nice.

I wish I could plant more flowers. Yours are so beautiful. My yard, with the exception of the veggie garden, is mostly shade and flowering plants just don't thrive in shade.

Thank you for the beautiful photos!

I'm lucky to have plenty of space here for gardening on our little farm. I turned the entire front yard into a huge flower garden, all in the sun. I've been working on it for the past 3 years now, and still have a terrible problem with weeds. Next year, I swear to do really DEEP mulch.

tomatoes, rhubarb, swiss chard, jalapeno peppers and mint.

Did I say Wow? Just in case, WOW!!

Charming fury gardener you have there.

I can just imagine all the work that went into this!

about the only thing that survived the OK summer was me.
The peppers and eggplants are still hanging on by a thread. They keep getting smaller and smaller. Basil still looks good but the rest is a pile of sticks.
Best crop of the year was peaches.

of Missouri, so not a lot survived. Sure enjoyed looking at yours, though!

I got nothing but weeds. Everything has burned up.

There are probably a few figs, watermelons, the 2nd crop of black-eyed peas. 3 house kitties and 1 indoor/outdoor kitty, plus a chocolate lab and brindle terrier who live next door but stay over here most of the time.
