It’s already getting hot in Florida. But my spring garden is looking fantastic.
I have to admit I have been giving myself pats on the back for this one. I am so proud.
I love just looking at it and admiring its beauty.
I have had gardens in the past. But this one takes the cake!
These pictures are from April 21st.

Back in the fall, my right side of the garden looked great and my left side was still getting prepped. But as you can see the left just exploded this season. These are pictures from this morning.

I am definitely not done. I want to get some wild flowers planted. Oh I also forgot to take pictures of the milkweed with butterfly eggs on it. Brianna is so excited. But the heat is getting bad so I don’t how long some of these plants will last. Summers in Florida is like a winter up north. You can’t plant anything; it’s too hot and too rainy. I will be conditioning my soil during that season and prepping for a huge fall garden.
I am even thinking of another expansion. One in a more shady area to grow plants that can’t handle a lot of heat and sun.

Garden potential is always so fun. Best of luck during this growing season! Here in the Pacific Northwest, the lilacs are blooming early, so we will have to see what the season brings.

I have one of those fancy Nikon cameras that have too many buttons and options for me to learn so I keep it on auto. LOL Its one of those things that I would love to learn but haven’t gotten that far yet.
