Yesterday I took the trash out to the curb and passed by a tree stump with some furry dark brown fungus on the surface.

I looked it up and saw that it's Brown Stemonitis Mold.
Fun name.

Fairies in the tomato plants.

After the rain.

Destroyer of the garden.

Guardian of the pineapple.

fun with kitty

Boo!

On the hunt for lizards. Even after being told not to hunt lizards.

Buzz

This little guy was stuck on a pine needle:

I tried to free him. I failed.

Charles in Charge

My new friend Charles has set off on a treacherous yet rewarding expedition through my backyard garden. He was kind enough to send back photos.

Here he is exploring Green Onion forest.


In search of the legendary cucumber. (there were none)

Everything bloomed!

Frogs like my Basil.

We set the World on Fire...

A little bit of lighter fluid goes a long way.

Busted

You're not supposed to be outside...

sorry, my garden's just so big...

A fantastic amount of rain has been gifted to the area, causing all the plants to become saturated with bold shades of green. The grass grows ten inches a day! (I didn't measure I'm just sayin'...)

I think only lizards live here.
Monsters!

it's..... really hot outside.

I mean, it's really, really hot outside. Like fire.
But my flowers are blooming.The last hurrah of my oregano plant.

The roses are for some reason preferring to grow on only one side of their container. Attempts to wrangle them closer to the center were thwarted by a good effort on their part to stay put exactly where they are.


A lily bloomed without my knowledge. But to be fair I wasn't paying attention.
