Excuses, excuses

Yes, I realize it has been almost two months. I do have an excuse, though. Here it is, the excuse you've all been waiting for...My garden is wimpy. Yes, it is. And I have an excuse for that one, too: It's not my fault. Really. It is too shady. If you don't believe me, take a look at this monster.



The cottonwood. Because of it, ninety percent of my yard is shaded ninety percent of the time. The other ten percent is the rose garden which is doing quite well now that the dandelions died. I put my tomatoes there. See?


So, I just have pictures today, no well-meant "advice". But hey, I made a friend! And she has real garden know-how.
