Hey, I just wanted to say thanks to everybody who has been stopping by and commenting on our garden photos. This time of the year is so beautiful in Gulf Coast gardens. Right now and about September through November are the absolute best times to garden here in Florida. The weather is so mild you can hardly imagine being anywhere else and doing this. I can weed in a light, long-sleeved shirt and never break a sweat. Shoveling compost? Not a problem when the temps are in the low 70s. Truly, this is paradise. Don’t worry, you all can rub it in when it’s 98 degrees in the shade and humidity is 100%. It’s awful.
Here are some more photos of what’s going on in the garden. I did forget to get a shot of our first asparagus spear. It’s absolutely lovely!
