Garden Trek Log--Day 11





We celebrated the first days of June and summer, by doing another walkabout, at our favorite nature area, Powell Gardens. There we spied a giant species of preying mantis, and realized, aha! that is how they keep the bad bugs away! Fell in love with a honeysuckle clematis vine climbing along a bridge, and just admired the view across their lake. We saw other people taking pictures to get garden ideas too, and as we went along, I was able to compare my plants at home with theirs, and think, wow, mine is doing the same as theirs. I don't have the army of volunteers, just me and hubby, but I guess we are doing something right at home.
