So I am not sure what happened to the posting once a week thing…. but any who here I am. This summer has been crazy. Has yours seemed busier then normal? The flowers have been doing great. It has been a blast planting new varieties and seeing what they do. As like last year. Next year I need to double again. It takes a lot of blooms to make a decent sized bouquet. I also need to plant more foliage.

When I went out this morning to cut….I wore a sweatshirt. It felt amazing…but I am not ready to let our summer go just yet. I am still hoping for a few more hot days. How about you? Hot days or sweatshirt weather?
