The Wet, Wet Garden
After worrying about the rain deficit (we were below normal for April), Mother Nature generously rewarded us with an abundance of rain this past week. I am not going to complain although I do wish it would skip my off-days. Today (Saturday) is an especially wet day. I ventured out briefly and took a few shots. The plants grow so fast from the rain.

I'm glad you got a break from the rain - and some sun! We're supposed to get a 3-day break (counting today) but I've put off having a truckload of compost delivered until this series of storms is over as it takes days for me to distribute it (on top of the usual lag in getting a delivery date).
ReplyDeleteI envy you that load of manure. I really like the yellow/green foliage with the dark blue sky in the background. Happy day in winter when it iswarm and dry enough to get a few chores done. The list will get longer no doubt.
ReplyDeleteThat is indeed beautiful Amendment, and a beautiful Arctostaphylos.
ReplyDeleteFor gardeners, trucks do come in handy!
Good for you for getting out there - even a little bit. I had a new project to measure, but called it off to a more suitable weekend, weather wise. Spent the weekend playing in the kitchen instead. Not sure what kind of baking demon has gotten hold of me... LOL!
