This will be my last post for a while: tomorrow morning we are driving north for a few days of off-the-grid camping. So I thought I'd share the current state of the rain-soaked garden in its high-summer prime.

Here is Lantern Waste: a hedge of pink dahlias beginning to open, scarlet runners climbing the post.


Along the front of the Breadbasket: rows of sunflowers, zinnias, and dianthus.


Eastern Terrace: Strawberries in front, chard and peppers behind them, tomatoes in the rear.


 Another view of the Breadbasket: collards and kale in the box, arugula and green beans behind them, sedum and dianthus in bloom.


The Lower Terrace: lavender and nasturtiums.

Lovely! People must walk slowly past your house to take it all in. My garden is a jungle, but we ate our first squash last night, and the zuchinni have started their growth spurts. Beans will be ready any day now, and the second planting of peas are almost ready to eat.

Hope you have a wonderful time up north!!!!
