Here it is the end of July nearly and I have flowers by the bucketloads. The zinnias are pots of bright colors, the amaranth looks like Jack could climb them, the snaps are snappy, the bachelor buttons are cheerful and on and on. The asters and the dahlias are also stating to come into their own, slowly though so don’t expect big buckets of them yet.
We have had extraordinary hot weather, and some wicked storms come through but the flowers all seem to be holding up. In fact, they seem to be doing better than the gardener some days and certainly better than our internet.
I actually don’t know if our internet is up and running yet. Consolidated Communications wasn’t able to give a time last Thursday when the region’s internet would be back up and running, so, if you don’t get any newsletters this week regarding flowers, don’t worry, just come on over during our open hours. Remember, Tuesdays from 4-6 and Fridays form 9-11. I do so look forward to seeing you and catching up.
Alyson from Nye Hill Farm did have delicious green beans and yummy blueberries last Friday so I am hoping she will be bringing a small selection of farm fresh produce again on a regular basis. Hint, hint Alyson.
‘Til next time. Allie
