The flowers in the garden have gone crazy. There are rhododendrons and camelias in bloom, azalias brightening every corner, the Japanese tree peonie is usually the first out but we had frost every night, so the leaves uncurled in the sun, then curled up again with the frost. It took them forever to finally burst forth.
When I open the window, in wafts perfume from the wisteria vine that has actually pulled the railing of the deck out of alignment, it is so determined. I don’t know where it gets it’s nutrition. The root is stuck between two great big rocks.
So far, I’ve planted squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, and lettuce. Within a couple of days, the rabbits had eaten the lettuce down to about an inch. I dug them back up and put them in a planter on my deck. Now I can eat it and they can’t. 🙂
I’ve just begun writing Lies He Told, Book Four. Not sure what the title will be, but it’s Randy Bonnar’s story. He’s Leah’s brother who moved to the coast to work for Jake in his PI endeavour. Very excited.
What’s growing in your garden?
