Our yard has gone from a parched desert in the beginning of July, when we had less than 9/10 for an inch of rain for the entire first half of 2013, to a colorful jungle since we have received over 6 inches of rain since the beginning of July. I took the photos just after sunrise, before I spent the day pulling morning glories off of rose bushes and other plants, clearing paths, laying cardboard on the paths and spreading mulch on the cardboard. It’s still a jungle out there, but at least we don’t need a machete to cut our way from one end of the garden to the other.

Such a beautiful garden, so color and full of life. When I get older, I would love to have a garden like this. So peaceful, upliting,enchanting and full of beauty ( just from what I can see in the pictures ). Great pictures!
Thanks!
Just gorgeous! I really love the sunflower/cosmos combination 🙂
Thanks, Susan! It’s amazing how fast morning glories and other weeds grow with a little bit of water.
It is amazing to me how much your acreage changes between the times that I have seen it. But always beautiful and interesting. I love your jungle!
Thanks, Lois!
Beautiful jungle!
Thanks, Alex!
It’s already cold in Moscow. Rains and clouds. (
It’s starting to cool off here, but still warm.
Wow–so beautiful and bright and sunny. We had a field of dirt in June and now everything is green (even if it is mostly weeds, it looks a lot better and we can mow it).
Thanks!
