Mostly Spring with Signs of Summer


  I love to take a walk in the garden at the end of the day when the light is soft and flattering and the colors of the plants are richer and fuller than they are in the bright sun of midday.  It was quite lovely tonight and I stopped to take a few pictures to capture some of the charm of this season and the time of the day.  And to anticipate the pleasures of the coming summer garden.

 Garlic blossoms forming.


One of the first of the day lilies, Jean Wooten, which 
blooms faithfully almost all summer long


A nice stand of the first tomatoes 
planted this spring.


My favorite cherry tomato,  
SunGold, is already looking good.



You can't keep a good 
cucumber vine down!


Evening primroses fill out a space at the 
end of one of the vegetable beds.
