It took a couple hours this morning to kludge it into place, but its stable and will do its job efficiently - if perhaps a little ghetto.
Totally worth it.
Also worth it? Making milkshakes for dinner with friends!
Without sounding too much like I'm complaining about bruises when its raining gold nuggets - with the recent success I've been having at the market I realized that I have not had a day off since the last weekend of June. That makes roughly thirty days of at least 5 hours of work a day, and many 8-10 hour days. And with the heat we are having, I'm just kinda feeling a bit tired O_o
But, work goes on! I refuse to let sales go by when the iron is hot as they say!
I thought, as usual, I would post some more garden pics while I'm here.
Enjoy.
New Stonecrop Matrona, in front of Agastache - the peachy orange flowers behind it that smell like mint... you can't smell it?
Ornamental Pepper plant 'Purple Flash'
Mountain Fire Pieris - the new growth begins as a bright red, in the spring it has little creamy yellow bell flowers.
This is a Dahlia actually! Doesn't look like one, but its a hybrid perenial, and has multiple color blossoms in one plant! You can just barely make out another flower starting to bloom behind the peachy one that will be a fuchsia purple. Amazing what meddling in genetics can do.
Purple Coneflower Echinacea with Bee. There are so many bees in my garden, its great. And so many varieties of bee! Mostly they love the Wallflower pictured below this pic, and the Salvia around the garden. It's so great to see bees and butterflies and hummingbirds around. It's sad ever since I drained the pond (too scummy) that there have been less birds. Or the birds come around, land on the edge of the pond, and just kinda wonder where the water went.
Sorry birds! I promise to fix it soon! Just kinda busy right now... :(
African Daisy (only annual I planted) with Wallflower
Agapanthis! Yay! Came back from near death this winter. Such a pretty color to accentuate almost anything I put next to it. I'm so proud of it. Live Strong and Rock on Agi'
