I am a lucky mom. My Mother's Day gifts were flexible garden hoops and "super hoops", along with summer weight row cover cloth. Today we covered the hills planted with zucchini, patty pan squash, and two types of cucumbers. They are planted in the bed in the center of the garden which was until a last weekend beautifully overrun with joe-pye weed, bee balm, and 7 foot tall yellow cone flowers. All of these beauties have found new homes in our yard or in gardens of friends. We hope that the heat of this week doesn't lead to any problems with germination under the cloth. I will be out there again at 6:15 tomorrow morning to water (rain passes through the cloth). Wishing for thunderstorms and the cooler temperatures of last week, but grateful for feeling of summer at our fingertips. I hope that we aren't over-thinking the garden! How 'bout those onions?
