A Garden Update for Violet,

 Cousin Phylis's Mom ~ Violet
helped Phylis plant her garden
while she was visiting a couple
weeks ago.

While Phylis prepped the beds, Violet
 planted just about ever seed packet
 Phylis had  out in the garden.


Violet lives in Montana and
won't be seeing the results of her
efforts in person.



So once in awhile this summer,
I'll be posting garden pics from
Phylis's Garden
  for Violet to enjoy.

Oregano and Garlic Chives


These first photos are from the
garden's already established plants.

Strawberries


Phylis's Onions
that she started last year.


Violet's Seeds
Green beans


Peas 


Here's a partial view of the garden.
It rained heavily all day yesterday,
with more rain expected this afternoon.
Everything in the garden is extra soggy.

Phylis's husband  Rick 
 planted marigolds at the ends of most
of the garden beds.
Not shown but sprouting:
okra, corn, basil, zucchini, butternut squash
and I'm not sure what else.


Till next time Violet,
Thanks for all of your help.
Phylis loved your visit and enjoyed
seeing your enthusiasm for the garden
and the special time you had together.

note to Phylis.
Share this with your Mom.
Love ya, P.
