Succulent in the rain.
Wet lettuce leaves.
The Salem Witch Day Lily has a bud.
Last Fall's mums came back this year.
A guard toad in the raised bed.
The bush tomatoes have blossoms.
So do the eggplants. These are Japanese Ichiban eggplants.
A fresh salad waiting to happen.
Strawberries.
I don't like to waste space so I plant herbs and vegetables everywhere. This planter has some petunias but is also filled with pepper plants and thyme, rosemary and marjoram.
The magnolias are just beginning to open.
The first hydrangea.
This urn has chives and peppers, oregano and nasturtiums.
More tomatoes.
I just planted this basket for decoration.
Some of the tomatoes are as high as their cages already.
More eggplants.
Tomatoes, basil and a slug trap. I put beer in containers to trap slugs. One of the containers was not covered by a pot and the beer kept disappearing. I couldn't figure it out until I happened to turn around and see one rather large puppy slurping the beer out of the bowl. Does anyone know of a good puppy rehab out there?
I went thrifting all morning and threw this post up in a hurry. Sorry for so many boring veggie pics!***Remember to enter the giveaway by clicking on the sidebar. Tomorrow the winner will be announced and a new giveaway listed.

My father used to slip beer to the dogs.

I canned eggplant tapenade last year and it was delicious. We are down to the last jar :(
I hope to do more this year.
The garden photos are not boring. They show me the beauty of progress, hard work and love!
I love the pairing of veggies, herbs, flowers and garden deco.
Thanks for sharing......
I laughed so much when I read about Teddy :-) Better keep an eye on her :-) :-) :-)
Have a great day now!

And speaking of lushes. .I had no idea that Teddy had an avidity for the malt & hops. One would never get a clue from looking at her. She must imbibe for medicinal purposes only. Not! It just plain tastes good!! You must use a good brew!
