Good morning, and busy busy busy. Welcome to Saturday Morning Garden Blogging.
Another great week here in Denver. We started out in the low 80s, warmed up to 92° mid-week, then another band of thunderstorms moved in on Wednesday and temperatures went down as the moisture moved in.
The forecast calls for more thunderstorms over the weekend — perhaps June will be as wet as May was.
Of course the cost of the extra May rain (and the May snow) was a late start to planting. My poor cucurbits were close to pot bound, and with the cool weather are slow in putting out new growth. But they're still alive, and I count that as a victory.
I have most of the kohlrabi and cauliflower planted, and a couple of bulb fennel plants. Still have two tomato plants, eggplant, and the leeks in the veggie patch.
Then there's the batch of agastache and penstemon for the back flower beds, and the gladiolas to be plugged into the front to mark where I need to plant new spring bulbs in the fall.
That's what's happening here. What's going on in your gardens?
