Here is a slideshow of what’s going on in my garden right now. It’s mostly foliage at the moment, except for my wonderful smelling gladiolus and a chrysanthemum that is still going strong some 4 months after I potted it up. After looking at the photos I posted in January, I can see how much things have grown…

Lovely photos! And at any rate, you had a carnival to run, I think you have a valid excuse!
Hi. A while ago I would have never had anything Orange in my garden. But now I love it!!! I can’t get enough of it. On another subject, If I remember, I have sunflower seeds for container gardending. I want to bring you a pack tomorrow. Debo
Lovely container plants in the corner!
looks like things are turning out really well on your new balcony!
I like a lot the idea of using a rock as a plant label!
Your garden is indeed filing up. Is that the aeonium that was damaged some time ago? Am I remembering correctly? It looks so healthy. And lettuce and peas in a container. Impressive!
