Can you believe it's June?! Judging by the weather, it could still be April Showers...except that we had a wonderful show of May Flowers in our yard all of last month!
They inspired me to finally fill the pots on our deck with colorful blooming things. They were left by the previous owners and have sat empty for 3 years! We had fun picking out some perennials to fill them up. The pot shown here has a Sugar Bush amongst the flowers. You can eat the leaves and they taste like sugar! It can be used as a natural substitute. How cool is that?
I'm happy to report that the Hostas that we transplanted in the new rock bed survived and are brightening up that part of the yard.
And the veggies are putting on a show of their own in the garden. You gotta love the neat rows of green, growing things!
All of our little pond fish died over the winter, and we were a little surprised to see movement in the pond. It looks like a family of frogs have moved in! We often play a little How Many Frogs Can You See game, as they are often just peaking a nose out from under a lily pad or something. How many can you see?
There's 5 in that picture!
I took close-ups of 4 of them, and they didn't seem to mind one bit:
We have had a few cloudless days, and got to break out my new Badminton set to play. That's a sure sign of summer!
