Everything is growing in my garden, and looking good :)
I promised Margaret and Sheila that I'd post pictures of the stuff we planted a few weeks ago. Here they are:
The Aluminum sulfate that Margaret added is starting to turn the hydrangeas blue.
 I love hydrangeas, partly because their flowers are like litmus paper.

I think this guy is called a sweet potato vine. It's crawling around some impatiens.

the big, white, shady guys are looking good
Our wisteria plant is starting to climb the trellis


the Japanese garden

natural moss is beginning to grow in between the slate in the Japanese garden,
but you can't really see them in this picture

unripened tomatoes

I never realized eggplant flowers were so pretty

  1. Wow, I can't believe how much it's changed since two weeks ago. The shady white guys are calathea.

    It looks like the gladiolus bulbs we planted are coming up already, oops. This is why we are supposed to plant bulbs in the fall...

    The vegetable garden looks awesome.
