Lazy Garden

Despite the heat and extreme neglect, my garden continues to bloom. And I continue to be a lazy photographer, shooting everything with my iPhone.

Now: More From the Garden

I promise to back off the garden photos after today. The color and volume of blooms on the hydrangeas are out of control. WordPress is still being temperamental but watch for a widget of flickr photos in the sidebar soon.

Now: Blooming

In addition to the hydrangea from yesterday, my daylilies are about to explode. It’s amazing what a little compost and worm poop can accomplish.
For two or three summers my hydrangeas have appeared to be teetering on the edge. Mostly dead…yet slightly alive. Producing a few measly flowers. Last fall I tried throwing some compost and [...]

another day, another daylily

We are gearing up for a daylily explosion. There are more buds than I have ever seen. They seem to like the new house (can I still call it that? we’ve been here over a year now) as much as the humans do. Or maybe it is the worm castings I fed them. Who knows?
I [...]

a little rain must fall, but this is ridiculous

May Market was this weekend. It’s been cold and rainy for days so when it looked like there was a break in the weather this afternoon, I loaded Eleanor into the Ergo on my back and headed over there. The break didn’t last as long as expected. About five minutes after we arrived it started [...]
