The garden is looking good and I'll share a few shots with you.
First of all I must show you the sweetest little gems in the greenhouse...
They're called 'Fairy Watermelons'...
here's one just beginning to grow...
They're actually a gherkin and taste like a crisp little cucumber...
Now here's the reason for the Fairy reference...
That's about as big as they get!!
How cute is that?!
As for my spaghetti squash, I'm not sure why it has the funny groove in it...
...and the poppies are as lovely as ever...
...even their fuzzy flower heads and seed pods are lovely to look at...
Another tiny beauty is this pot of 'Corsican mint'.
Just run your hand across it and you'll breathe in the fresh scent of summer...
I picked up this plant on a sale rack but can't remember the name...
Pretty little plumes of pink and grey...
On the way out to the garden, I encountered this visitor munching under the apple tree...
This eryingium is called 'Miss Wilmotts ghost' and
glows silvery white especially at night when the moon is full...
In a week I'm off to Toronto for our daughters wedding and will be gone on
the road until mid September so I'm taking a bit of a holiday from
blogging...a 'blogiday' you might say.
I may be posting from time to time but no guarantee's...
Hope you all enjoy the rest of this most wonderful summer!
Be blessed and hug the ones you love.
Ciao for now!
