I’ve been in the garden nonstop since last week pulling weeds, trimming plants, laying a new pathway and of course planting new plants before laying mulch down.

Today I targeted a new section of the garden, a path going into the newer portion.

Its always rewarding to get your hands dirty and making your vision come alive, a vision that often times is a fluid approach when it the garden.

This morning after I planted a white zinnia in a pot my daughter painted, a gulf fritillary found the nectar and had quite a feast. The best part, I was not too far away and the butterfly was not bothered by me at all.
