Today's tea flavor, spearmint, lemon balm and a sprig of cinnamon basil.
This bed of Swiss chard got pretty crispy from going too long without water. It is sooo hot and dry this year I just can't get the water to things fast enough. I pulled out the plants that didn't revive with a dep soak and trimmed back the rest.
Mmmm. Not sure how or why that came apart. #onemorething
This greenhouse is turning into a jungle
The zinnias are managing the heat ok
The sunflowers are thriving so far.
The squash have had some ups and downs. A few crispy leaves and aborted fruits but so far reviving when watered.
I would trade a hundred perfect sunsets for a few inches of rain. The years total stands at 2.5". The heat is depressing and frustrating. It is all I can do to keep going every day.
