It’s been a while since I’ve taken you for a stroll through my garden. I thought you all might like to see how it’s looking this month.
We’ve had lots and lots of rain! So everything is growing very nicely.

My veggie garden is looking very lush since we’ve had so much rain. The cucumbers are loving it but the pumpkins and zucchini not so much!
My flower bed is so full of zinnias you can’t hardly see the other flowers in there!
The crepe myrtle are just popping with color. I love these trees so much! You can get a variety of color and the size is easy to control.
This is what happens to an artichoke when you don’t pick it. Isn’t it pretty!
There are apples on one of my apple trees the others are too young.
The ornamental grasses I planted last year are doing really well thanks to all the rain.
Hope you enjoyed the stroll with me!

Your garden looks beautiful. I can’t keep the deer out of mine long enough for something to grow:(

Beautiful garden! The rain has been good for the flowers and garden but I am a bit sick of it! Have a blessed day dear Manuela, HUGS!
Stephanie @ La Dolce Vita says
I love your garden! The first words that popped into my head were lovely, and lush! But hey, even that artichoke looks good. I never saw one like that. Happy Summer!
Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions says
Beautiful, Manuela! Your garden has certainly benefited from the rain. We are expecting a hot, humid and dry week here. Just as well since the rain wasn’t really doing anything to cool things off. It just means I have to make sure I get out and water my plants!
Carol says
Your garden is lovely. You make me want to be out working in my garden, which is the plan for today.
Viola Symonds says
Love looking at pretty garden photo’s. So fun.
Have a great week.

Oh I missed the Zinnias this year. I didn’t plant any…wondering if it’s too late. Maybe…maybe not!
We’ve had drizzling rain the last two days…but it is too late for our garden. I think the Tomatoes will benefit from it…everything else has died. Your garden looks so green and lush!
…I’m already planning for a fall garden. Pat

Lush doesn’t begin to describe…just gorgeous …wow so much growth since I was last here! Are those July apples? The sour variety ? I love ’em …just picked up a few at the farm market…called “Lodi”
Vee says
I always enjoy a stroll through your garden… Wish that I had picked up some zinnias this year!
Mimi Sue says
Your garden is beautiful this year! We are on water rationing due to a drought. Maybe you could send us some of your excess rain?? Mimi
Debbie says
It’s all so gorgeous, as usual. Believe it or not, my favorite thing of all was the artichoke. I would LOVE to use that in decorating somehow.
Heather says
Oh, it’s fabulous!! I could spend all day in your garden… beautiful.
Pamela Gordon says
Your gardens and flowers look very lush. It’s very pretty there. We are enjoying a sunny hot spell and the gardens are doing very well now. Have a good week!
Connie Teasley says
Beautiful! I have got to get some zinnias!
Melanie says
I love all your gardens…so beautiful and lush! I had no idea that an artichoke looked like that if you didn’t pick it. That’s incredible! I love zinnias…they add so much color to a garden.
Kathleen Grace says
We have had so much rain here too. The fruit trees are loaded with fruit and the garens are doing so well. Your garden is so lush and pretty. I love the artichoke blossom and the zinnias of course:>)
Kathy says
Oh how beautiful! Love the artichoke. I had no idea they did that.
