Ciao, gentle readers..
It was chilly when we started our walk this morning
and it was a perfect morning
to do some weeding
so I murdered some grass
and cut a few things back...
Most of my gardens are doing well..
but I have had trouble with
Mildew
this year..
my peonies were completely covered and I cut them
down to the ground..
now my Zucchini
are slowly dying of it and I will have to yank it out
before it contaminates anything else...
the garden with the troubles is West facing and
is in shade most of the morning..
so it is susceptible to mildew with all the rain we have had..
we shut off the sprinklers..
even in 80 degree heat...
things are molding... ugh.
but seriously.. I can't complain when I still have these
Hydrangeas blooming so gorgeously...
below...
I am off to the studio..
I want to finish my Iris painting...
concentrating of that today...
Black Iris
is the title, I have decided!!
thank you for stopping by the
Lily Cottage..
we so appreciate your readership...
you viewers, readers, fans and lurkers..
Ciao! Ciao!!
