In the words of @lemonbalmgirl "Oh, your fence is blooming." Our fence is irises, apparently. It's not May unless I post iris photos.
Also, wisteria on the porch. I'm a bit behind on the garden this year, but the spirit of the garden doesn't care and still does its thing.
Yesterday as I was covered in dirt and weeding one of the veg beds a woman stopped her car to tell me she loves my irises, it was sweet. One veg bed is cleared and I planted snap peas on one trellis, scarlet runner beans on another trellis, and a bunch of multi colored bush beans all around.
Rid another few beds of mint, planted onions and cilantro outside, lots of flower seeds inside to eventually put on pots on the porch.
There's still a lot to weed. I fucking hate grass, there's not plots of grass in my yard and I pull it every year and it always comes back, boo! It's honestly the weed I struggle with the most, even when my neighbor's yard is a field of stinky bob.
Friday I'm working set up for the Master Gardener Incredible Edibles plant sale. Saturday I'm picking up plants from some kids in the neighborhood that grow neat things including Cure and Depeche Mode named tomatoes (Blasphemous Rumors and Fascination Street if you are curious) and then going to shop at the Incredible Edibles plant sale. Sunday I'm working an Eco Fair and plant sale at Edgefield for MG.
Hoping to actually get veg in the ground next week, but I still have to clear the fava beans. I had never grown them before and they are lovely, but fussy to prepare.
Also made a lovely drink with the violet infused vodka I made with flowers from the yard and jalapeno limeade. I was surprised at how well the violet held up!
