Garden Life
June 19, 2008 | Life in the secret garden
Every morning around seven, I pour my first cup of coffee and check on the hummingbird crew.
Normally they work the swing shift, clocking in a little before seven in evening. Then they settle into work over the red garden.
Occasionally, a quality control inspector buzzes the window boxes mid-day. But, he’s not a regular.
This year for the first time, a lone male has shown up every morning for weeks.
This guy is as regular as if he were punching a time clock. He buzzes in and gets right down to business, servicing every blossom on the perennial fuchsia. To give you an idea of the scope of his work–the bit of solid grey to the right of the shrub is a six-foot cedar fence.

What a beautiful garden! It looks very serene.

Thanks Lori! This time of year the garden calls for attention as much as writing. I love working outside.
If my intentions hang in there long enough to become habit then garden life (with photos) will become a regular blog feature.

Ooh, I’d love that! We’ve finally got the big yard I’ve always wanted. Now, we just need the money to do what I want with it. I’ll be looking for inspiration!

In a way I envy you a new yard to turn into the garden of your dreams. I love planning gardens–I love working in them too. But, starting from scratch–that’s daunting. Hopefully, there are some plantings established that you can use.
