The Garden in August


This is a photo of our side garden, such as it is.  This year Kathy planted Dusty miller, with Begonias, and Black-eyed susans.  I love the Dusty miller, which sets off the color.  Of course our lawn is a mess, as it is every year.  There is something wrong with the soil, that just fertilizer cannot cure.  I started making compost tea which promotes the growth of microbes in the soil, but I didn't keep it going.  I will add that to my list of things to do.

Who cares about the lawn! It's all about the colorful flowers that make you smile. Who doesn't love a bright bouquet on the table! betsey
