So much garden -- so little time

So much garden -- so little time

We've had really warm weather. I try to get out into the garden soon after sunrise and start deadheading and pulling weeds, but I never seem to get what I need to get done before it gets hot. Oh well, there is always tomorrow.

Looking forward to seeing you and the garden in person! :love::love:

Alice, what does it mean to deadhead..is that when you pinch off old growth and how far down do you to it? I hate to be dumb, but when should you do it?

No gardening for me this year. I miss it, but the combo of my high b/p and the heat is not a good one. I'll enjoy yours instead. Please post lots of photos!!

@winniezpoo - Deadheading is simply snipping off the spent blooms. It encourages new blooms on lots of plants, and makes the garden look nicer.
