The bad news is....
Im confused now lol.
I DID run out and take a picture of the nieghbours garden,.... well, actually its the nieghbour of the nieghbours garden,...i woulda been trespassing if i took the actual nieghbours garden picture as she has a privacy fence in front and i couldnt get to it.(do i have to ask permission to photograph my nieghbours garden anyone know.?..if im putting it in a blog?). Its all the same thing tho as i got all the nieghbours in on the butterfly bush "rave" lol.We are all growing the same seeds.
Heres the bush...
Heres another of mine..
I think i will wait until it grows more.I am leaning towards amaranth tho..
Notice beside her 'butterfly bush" is some sunflowers.?They are mine.lol.or "were".
they are from last years seeds i gave her.Hers reseeded. Mine did not.Maybe the jerusalem artichokes "choked' them all off.?
O.k. so i'm a little envious lol.
Remember i said a while back her hollyhocks had towered like a fountain while mine didnt come up.?
That was hers,..this is mine...DOH!!..Dont mind the weeds.LOL
I find some pleasure from looking at the Datura blooming for me. (these are the white and black? ones i purchased in Navan at the nurserie there).
The Castor Bean is growing as well and i seem to have to pods i hope are seeds i can share.
I have to point out this nifty little device i picked up from Walmmart yesterday for just around seven bucksi purchased the last one here in Orleans so maybe try another Walmart if you are looking to buy one). It has eight settings for the water to spray. Quite handy .
The good news is...
The white Datura bloomed,
Man,..those Zinnia sure grow and bloom. I was quite happy with that Canadian Tire investment this year.
The Sweet Potato plant bloomed a lovely pale lilacy coloured flower,
...AND..Last but not least,...The Tomatoes that "did" make it..are ready to pick.Ta da..(I just happen to have some bacon cooked and toast ready hehe).
Think i will go nourish this gardeners "engine" with a tasty sandwich.Then i'll go weed....NOT!!!
