My flower garden is not as abundant as I had hoped. This could be due to the fact that it was put in later than I wanted…and I don’t really weed or water it. It’s possible that’s the problem. But, regardless, flowers are starting to bloom!

The next two pictures are not from my garden. They’re from my mother-in-law’s. She’s a much better gardener than I am, something to do with weeding and watering, I think-and she’s been kind enough to keep me supplied with bouquets this year!

The climate here is quite arid, but zinnias get powdery mildew anyway! I do not even bother growing them anymore. I really want to grow sunflowers again. I have only grown a few varieties, so have not yet found one that I don’t like.

My sunflowers are finally blooming (along with zinnias and cosmos). I’ll do a post about them soon!
