Summer Doldrums

June 15, 2017 By lpilewski

Doldrums – noun – a state or period of inactivity, stagnation, or depression. Well, that’s the garden right now. Take the zucchini for example. Last week, beautiful flowers. This week?

…

Welcome! Follow along with me as I try gardening for the first time! My grandfather and mother are both amazing gardeners who could grow anything. Grapefruit, oranges, lemons, tomatoes, peppers, avocados, flowers, figs, mangoes, papayas – nothing seemed to wither on the vine.

Then there is me. I’ve never had success with plants, but that is going to change this summer! The picture above is what I see in my mind. I’m hoping that my kitchen counter will look like this. (OK, not the mushrooms, but you get the idea).

I intend to detail the journey here on a weekly basis. We’ll have to wait to see how my garden grows. Hope you stick around!
