Got home yesterday....holy shit, my garden is a mass of colour and growth ....the Lillys are out, the petunias are out in incredible force...all my seedlings are like teenagers now ....best of all...my uncle has been over and fenced off my flower garden, thinned out all my overgrowing seedlings, and replanted some shit into troughs...I'll get pics at some point....all the colour makes me smile big time....

He didnt pull the wrong weeds did he? lol

After the fooking Monsoons over the last couple of days, I'm surprised anything is still standing
Here is where I am at now....as always, opinions appreciated.....especially if you know what any of these are...The lillies have had thier day I think...they flowered en mass while I was in Seattle
My Uncle replanted all the Petunias, I think they are thriving now...the Geraniums are not doing so good though..

you are indeed fortunate to have an uncle who is so good to you and your garden, i wondered how you were going to spend a month in seattle without your garden becoming overgrown ... imo you owe him a debt of gratitude for all his work, the garden is looking lovely

this is very impressive, i didn't realize that you had done so much digging and planting, and the fence sets it off nicely

looks like it will be a proper border garden bed, should be lovely when it all flowers

Cheers

I love bee's so we have a lot of bee friendly plants, tiesel being the best (in the back, our front garden is a wild flower garden with lots of corn flowers the bee's love also).

gardens doing well here. tomatoes are all almost atleast out only a few flowers left. flopwers are all out aside from the petunas.

grew some catnip for my cat. thals always fun. grows buds that look a bit like that other bud. maybe related to cannabis like the hop is i assume.

any more updates? I love this thread and watching the progress of the various gardeners

catnip,peppers,tomatoes

some weird little weed crawling all over the place...hops probably

heres strawberryies,watermelons and peppers for late season...keep on growin folks..so much better then the store

good variety of veggies n plants in your garden........like it........

OK so I finally got some pics of my garden. I just have to upoad them to the host site and its going to be a busy weekend. We are having a party with over 100 people this weekend so I will be busy. I will take breaks while getting ready for the party so I may jump in here once in while but I need to host a bunch of pics (including amsterdam in april and jamacia from last dec, lol) So that will take some time. Im hoping a certain friend from the board here bring over his volcano . It was a hit last year. lol.

My dog keeps pissing on my petunias
