Meaty Tree

Morning glory, watermelons, poppy, and meaty smelling tree.

This is all growing where the dead painted tree used to be!

The morning glory came back on its own!

The meaty smelling tree is growing on its own in 

a couple of areas.  I'm going to let them because

they are like succulents and don't need a lot 

of help from me!

Trunk

I finally chose the right kind of plants to live in the trunk garden.  I jest need to keep that area weed free!  I also met a black widow there the other day, so I need to be careful when I'm weeding in that area!  

Fence

I'm very happy with my morning glory progress.  I hope it can cover that fence one day.

Soil Conditioner

I'm thinking about trying a couple bags of soil conditioner in 

one of my garden beds to improve the soil quality.  Nothing

ever grows very well in my beds.  So I'll try this and also try

taking out the soil and putting brand new soil in another bed!

Shopping for soil and other garden needs is fun!

Tomatoes

I've gotten a lot of yummy tomatoes.  Some of the plants need to be trimmed and maybe just taken out.  But I'm happy with my tomato harvest this year!

Grass

Grass in the summer is so sad.  I need to make sure I water it way more.  Water bills in the summer make me a little sad too.

List

My list for the summer:

1.  Figure out tree watering.
2.  Research lavender care.
3.  Straighten up rock garden.
4.  Plant sunflowers and morning glory for the summer.
5.  Weed the garden beds.
6.  Weed the trunk garden area.
7.  Refresh kitch garden.
8.  Tidy up the garden table area.
9.  Clean the chairs on Oliver's deck.
10.  Work on Oliver's deck container garden.
11.  Read and look over what still needs to be done on the last list I wrote.
12.  Tomatoes- work on tying them up better and trimming leaves.
13. Get mulch from the street next to my shed.  Put around azaleas.

15.  Weed area near the morning glory and poppies.
16.  Weed and straighten up converse garden.  Add new succulents and shoes.
17.  Figure out when to name all my garden beds and design themes for them.  Consult my writer friend.
