Flower bed at our front gates
Hello!
I had the great pleasure of working in the garden a bit this past week. I was loosening up the soil in one of my beds. It was only recently that I learned that this is quite a good thing to do for your soil. Make sure you don’t dig up your plants, but the soil around them should be nice and loose. This also makes it MUCH easier to pull up weeds.

I live in the country and we have lots of birds around nearly all of the time. It is kinda fun to see them when they move in what seems to be a huge formation. A wee bit of a distraction during my gardening.
The video is quite short. I was just sharing the beautiful day with you!
I hope you are able to get out and enjoy some nice weather where you are.
In peace,
Dana

Enjoy your gardening. I’ve seen lots of those sunflowers on our travels in Germany and Austria. Most look just like yours…at the end of their life cycle.
Thank you Karen. I love escaping into the garden! And what a wonderful time of year to be traveling through Europe. Enjoy!
I wanted to stop back by to say “hello”. I hope that you and your wonderful family had a wonderful Christmas.
Hi there Karen! Thank you so much for stopping by again! We have had such a lovely and relaxing Christmas, thank you! I hope yours has also been lovely, and I wish you and your husband a very Happy New Year! Xx 🙂
I so much enjoyed visiting your blog…love your gardening also. I grow sunflowers in my backyard…love them!
Hi Kelley, how wonderful that you enjoyed your visit! Thank you so much for your kind words. I just think sunflowers are such a “happy” flower to have in the garden! 🙂
