What's going on in your garden (2018-2022)?

Wife won't have a bar of it. I could over rule her, but I won't,lol.

Well she may have no interest in a pond but I bet the grand kids would like it. Is there an actual objection on her part - i.e. health hazard, or something?

About a week or 10 days after planting:

Planted the last one today, and got a few more bags of mulch down.

I've got lots of arugula (rocket) which is growing really fast in a pot. Its not called rocket for nothing!

The frame for the deck is screwed together, tomorrow I oil it and prep the facia boards.

No, she's a spoil sport at times. If she wanted one, we'd have one. Lol

The deck frame and facias are oiled, it's too hot to do anything else.

Beautiful garden. And nice toes! Like me, you are one of the rare people whose second toe is as long, or longer that their big toe. Supposed to be a sign of good genes!

I too have a second toe longer than my big toe.

Tomato plants and lettuce are looking really good. There are lots of raspberries that will be ready in a few weeks.

My whole front yard is native plants. They are drought tolerant, and fairly low maintenance. My trees are also native. They can go months without rain. My neighbors ask me all the time why my yard looks so good in the worst conditions, and I tell Tham the trick is to grow things that grow here in nature -- with no help from humans.

Now, to be honest, some of my neighbors did not like my yard when I first planted it, and complained to the HOA, but I told them to give it some time. They did, and now they love it.

We have a lot of native plants in our yard, too. We call ours "weeds".

This moth visited our garden last evening. Unfortunately it was dark so I needed to use flash.

​

I guess the wingspan was around 80 mm.

This is the first year theres been a bumper crop. The plant is about 4 years old. Previous years it didn't yield much. I eat various types of berries with yogurt on a regular basis. We shall see what this year brings!
