Met some friends for dinner. I offered to bring fresh dill, since it grew so much with the rains we've had.

I don't think they expected me to show up with 2x gallon-sized Ziplocks stuffed with dill.

I am happy for a bountiful crop after last year's early bolting from a heatwave, but... I need space to sow my cucumbers and my basil & marigold seedlings are getting leggy! Now my friends can make a nice stroganoff with all that extra dill & I'll still have plenty for us.

A raised bed covered in boisterous fluffy dillweed.  This is before I harvested the entire 1 foot by 3 foot section in the front to put my snake cucumber seeds in.  Plus I took a lot off the left side, to give my basil & marigolds a chance.

Evening garden — sour cherry blossoms. 🌸🍒

#gardening #flowers #bloomscrolling #Colorado

Backlit by the golden evening sun, a cluster of many white, five-petaled, sour cherry blossoms look translucent in light shining through the tree and its crisscrossing branches, with a clear, deep blue sky above.

Planted out the overwintered verbena and one geranium I didn't plant the other day.

A large pot planter on the side of a post with a pink verbena planted in the middle of it. There is a smaller pot hanging behind the large pot and it also has a verbena in it. There is a hexagon raised bed frame in the background on the lawn that is not mowed because it's May! /s and because the dandelions are still blooming and when they are done it will be mowed and then dutch clover will bloom.

The early vegetables are growing good and there is some progress on new raised beds. I need to thin the beets and probably get the melons, cucumbers, beans, and squash started indoors but I still don't trust the weather 2 weeks out. Too many side projects.

A raised garden bed with radish nearer and spinach and arugula farther away and in the black pot. It is in the corner of a fenced garden.A raised bed with sugar snap peas on a mesh trellis and 2 rows of beetroot that need thinned.The end of a raised bed that has some harvested indoor lettuce plants that were planted out and are regrowing.A view of 4 raised beds, the nearest 3 are new, The two closest are 8 feet long by 4 feet wide and one has a pile of dirt sticking up in it that goes into the nearest one. The upper right one is one third dug out and needs wood added and it is 14 feet long by 4 feet wide.  The other beds is from last year and is 9x3 feet and needs last years tomatoes and this years couch grass cleaned out of it and get it ready to plant... not tomatoes if I remember right but I can't remember what for sure. Maybe melons.

Honeywort is one of my very favourite flowers. It’s so good in a cottage garden in the pnw - it self seeds nicely, survives the summer drought, and performs beautifully in the spring and autumn. Calendula is the same for me. #gardening

I'm trying to figure out how best to maintain all these native herbaceous perrenials here in the Great Lakes area and I'm running into conflicting goals.

On the one hand, it seems I'm supposed to burn (or approximate) to clear out the old dry growth and allow the sun to warm the soil early in the spring. On the other hand, the dried stems and whatnot are wintering habitat for all the little bug buddies.

Am I missing something?

A small call for #Help

The plant on the left is really a problem in my yard.
I'm pulling as much of it as I can but the damn thing is more persistent than a toxic ex!
Except that unlike an ex I don't even know its name so any help to learn more about it is most welcome!

The one on the right is less problematic but my Seek app doesn't seem to identify it properly.

1 Re-toot = 1 bee or butterfly saved!

Our first swallowtail from last year hatched today! Here's to the first of many. #butterfly #gardening

A black swallowtail butterfly rests on a cement block with its wings flatted out to dry. Its body is black with yellow spots and its wings are black with yellow stripes near the edges and blue patches at the bottom.

This year all my tomato seedlings are not just leggy but dropping their lower leaves, with only the newest leaves green.

They're growing in a commercial seed starting medium, in two inch cells that should give them plenty of room, and they get watered regularly. There are constant fluorescent lights and a bit of sunlight from the window as well.

It's a new problem this year. Anyone got a clue what's going on here?

This plant that Google initially identified as shiso now appears to be chia aka Mexican salvia. It had grown over 2m tall but broke a lot in a windstorm. Origins mysterious - I did not plant it. #gardening

Enjoying the latest shoots in the garden. The growing season goes fast now, every time I look I see something new thriving.

Another free garden gift from the city — a leadplant. 🪴
