Very nice pics Susan,
I wish I had a no-see-dirt garden like yours (sooo many plants and blooms that the ground is hidden from sight) ... I always complain I don't have any room for new plants, but I still feel there's so much to be done.
Great job!
Same thing here last year, and looks like this year. We had lots over lots of rain in early spring and now nothing. And the weather is very hot. Already starting to look like a desert!
I'm looking at months of manual watering
