Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!

Well, the veggies are growing like crazy! Well...some of them are. I looks like the cherry tomato seeds and broccoli seeds are not showing up this year. Hubby's boss said it may have been too late for broccoli when we put it in. Also, the cabbage and caulilower aren't as thick as the other stuff, but it appears there are some plants coming up there. I hope I'm not mistaking weeds for plants...it wouldn't be the first time. *blushes* Anyway, the pumpkins, cukes, and string beans seem to be thriving. Not to mention the other tomato plants I put in, I've already had to stake them. I do need to get a few more stakes, tho.

We've been getting some nice rain of late, so I'm sure the garden is loving that! I need to water my fairy garden a bit, tho, as its under an eave and doesn't always get the rain. Does anyone know if its ok to poke a few holes in the rain gutter to let the rain drip thru to the flowerbed underneath? Once the fairy garden looks a little more established, I'll take some pics. The front flowerbed is taking a bit longer to get where I want it to be, but I'm thinking somewhere around the end of June, it may be ready for pics.

Hope ya'll are having lovely gardening days! We're expecting more rain...I guess tonite...as a cool front comes in. I hope it doesn't change direction. I'm not one who enjoys the heat.

Yours till Niagara Falls, Lori
