GBBD- July Blooms

A little late but here's my July Blooms. Yesterday I was baking at the ballpark watching our home team, the Minnesota Twins, struggle through another tough loss. Today I was busy taking some updated photos and doing quite a bit of watering. We have a private well here so we are not under any restrictions. I do try to limit watering to the gardens that really need it but once a week or so I give the lawns a drink along with some younger trees and shrubs. I will be picking some beans this week it looks like. I have several tomatoes but they are still green on the vines. My cucumbers are finally coming along. I should have used some new seeds instead of last year's leftovers. Thanks to May Dreams Gardens for hosting bloom day.
