Well, still struggling along with the cottage garden. I've been weeding the native garden because somehow in the last couple of weeks, it has been overgrown by long grasses. It's nice to know it's warm enough for them to grow. We've decided not to let it happen again by mulching, and this will also mean less watering.

Here are some of the 'cottage' flowers that are blooming: snapdragons, and a viola. I love snapdragons, I played with them a lot during childhood. I never thought of them as dragons; to me they looked like goats. Wouldn't it be nice to plant a faerie garden? I'll try to find out which plants the faeries like. :)
