Lavender in the balcony garden and Lenny’s crepe myrtle

I am looking forward to going out to the garden to forage for things to bring to work with my lunch. I know there will be at least four or five tomatoes, and I am expecting a small cucumber. The greens and fresh herbs are a given. Having exquisite fresh food and making sure I take at least 15 minutes to savor it always makes a hectic day a much better one.
Don’t have time to garden? Try joining a CSA.
The first summer I was in my house, I planted a climbing rose. Last year, two babies separated from the main plant. Although it is mostly shady in the front, I decided to see if it would take there and grace the front entrance. It’s got one bloom and fresh leaves even in the heat wave. I will continue to tend it.
