How does your garden grow?

 Well, my garden is ugly.  The spray from the beans seems to have drifted or fogged over my garden and almost everything is dying.  There is one cucumber plant still trying to do something.  It has more blooms (5) than leaves (4).  Don't know if there will ever be anything there or not.  The tomato leaves are all curled up and shriveling.  There are a few green tomatoes, but I'm planning to just buy a box of tomatoes at this point.  That's what happened to my green beans as well.  The garden corn which was planted after the spray had killed all the peas and 2 of the 3 hills of mystery pumpkins are still looking ok.  So, how about some pictures of my flowers...........


I did flowers along the ledge of the deck this year.  They are draping nicely over the twin flower boxes my dad made a few years ago.



Below is the plant I received from the bell choir.  It just keeps getting bigger.


You can't tell it because of how big the plants have grown, but there is a cute enamel tea kettle and a bright orange bucket full of plants here.


And my herbs are thriving.  I love rosemary, thyme, and ?  I think it's oregano, but maybe basil?


My porch box that my cousin Brenda made for me.........


Lilies..........


Another pot of annuals perched on one of David's big rocks..........



And more annuals in a black kettle.....


The daisies are getting ready to burst forth!


And the rose bush by the front door just keeps blooming.


Happy Sunday everyone!  We're off to the theatre in Macon to see Almost Heaven this afternoon.
