It's amazing to me how much a garden can change and grow in just one months time...
Here's how things are looking outside this June 2024...
This daylily had been underneath a tree for a long time, I had several of them under the tree and they seemed okay for a while, but as the tree grew bigger, the daylily was shaded more, and so the daylily hadn't been thriving for a number of years, and I even lost several others that I had in different colors, but this one came back this year, so I decided to move it this spring, to this pot and it's growing now, and I even got two blooms. I am so happy to see it like this, this year! I've always loved the quote, "Bloom Where You're Planted" But in this case, with my daylily, maybe it's best to move it, so that it can bloom and thrive better, lol! I love looking for the little life lessons from God, in the garden, His creation. It always amazes me how God gives us something interesting to think about, from being in nature in the garden and usually a way to apply the lesson to daily life.
Here's how the Basil plants are looking, I've been able to use some leaves for spaghetti and pizza so far....I'm so thankful for these. I grew them from seeds. It's been a little bit of a challenge with these since early spring, and to be honest, there were times that I didn't know if they would make it or not... but they have and it's been fun caring for them and they were worth the effort. I've had to move them in and out of the sun regularly, but I think they are doing good so far. Sometimes I feel like I'm babysitting plants in our very hot summer heat. It seems they need to be checked on often, lol!
I'm keeping them in water by the French Doors....hoping I'll be able to have more plants from these....
Well, that's how things are looking right now...
Until next time....
Stay creative and have a beautiful day!
