Time is Chugging Along...

So much to do - so little time!
Just a quick update on what's growing in the garden...
Chamomile is blooming like crazy - I keep picking the flowers to dry them for winter teas, but can barely keep up with it!
Borage and Yarrow next to each other. Love this color combination - that happened by accident.
First strawberries - picked yesterday. We only have a few plants, so not enough to go around...
My kids ate those for dessert last night.
Foxglove is blooming! I love Foxglove! The few plants that are in the garden this year were started from a tiny seed last spring - and they made it!!! Unfortunately they're pretty much in full sun, so probably will not reach their fullest potential, but I'm happy to see just a few blooms! More Chamomile on the left, and bunch of garlic in the background.

Tead see kliima on selline, et annab ja võtab... maasikate hooaeg siin jah täies hoos - juuni esimeses pooles saab juba see aeg läbi... praegu müüakse gallonite kaupa... selleks ajaks kui teie seal hoo sisse saate on mul juba võhmake väljas...aga peab ikka edasi panema...
praegu istutan juba tomateid välja.
tulge siia, maasikaid sööma!
