LAZY HARVEST...

I have to admit my harvesting was not nearly as productive as it should have been.  No fault to the herbs...they grew beautifully with the TLC I gave them ....but time got away from me (Tony's broken ankle, open houses...etc.) and I really let the gardens go.  I still have some sage and ginger mint I can salvage...but the weather turned so HOT again and it just takes all my energy away!

Happy Harvesting to everyone.....XO, Judy

Falltime Harvest

Hi Everyone! 
This is such a wonderful time of year for us Gardeners :)  I get just as excited to harvest the herbs & flowers as I get when I plant them.  This year I've decided to dry as much as possible.
Here's a basket of fresh Sage, Anise Hyssop & Basil that I'll be hanging in the barn~ There's also lots of Silver King Artemesia & Hydrangeas that will be dried as well. 

Here's how my Rudbecia turned out this year.................HUGE!

 And here is the Rudbeckia mixed with Mints, Sweet Annie, Zinnias and other flowers.
 Another thing that did so well this year was my Pumpkins.   I was harvesting them in August!!

 And they wereSuper HUGE this year!!! 
Happy Fall everyone, I enjoy looking at all your garden pics :)

Andrea~
