July Summer Garden Tips



Nothing is more memorable than a smell. One scent can be unexpected, momentary and fleeting, yet conjure up a childhood summer beside a lake in the mountains... ~Diane Ackerman

June was a beautiful month with lovely, breezy days, so I won't complain about last weeks 100 degree days with high humidity.  Okay, I might have complained a little bit:)  My miniature rose is full of blooms, and seems to love the heat, but some plants don't appreciate it and need a little extra nuturing during hot, dry spells.  I wrote an article with July gardening tips, including a few vegetables seeds that can still be planted and harvested before late fall.  The article is here:  http://oldfashionedliving.com/July-Flower-and-Herb-Tips.html  

Stay cool!
