Regardless, I am grateful you took the time to share this with us.

Jasia - Quite th...Thank you all for your comments!<br /><br />Jasia - Quite the compliment from someone who takes such great pictures and has the most beautiful roses. <br /><br />Michelle - I'm sure you will get back to your garden as time allows. I will say, I love the small beds. A family friend made nine of the raised boxes for me out of plywood, and they are much easier to maintain than planting directly in the ground.<br /><br />J. - It does take a lot of time over the summer. Let's just say my house doesn't look quite as good when I'm spending that much time outside. ;)<br /><br />Carol - I'm sure you'll get back to your garden next year! The same thing happened to me last year. We were away for a month, and I came home to a weedy disaster! I spent half of June and July this year still trying to reclaim order.<br /><br />Greta - Thank you so much for your compliment! My husband and I spent all day Saturday working outside trying to get things in order for fall. I loved your garden post a while back. I've always been a little intimidated by the care fruit trees involve though. Sounds like you were more than successful.Cynthia Shenettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07089125778529696076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-675676126371494857.post-88231292045624005292011-09-21T21:16:23.356-04:002011-09-21T21:16:23.356-04:00What a beautiful, well-kept garden.

We gardened some this summer, but it's getting ahead of us now; still, I hope to take a few days off to get everything in shape.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-675676126371494857.post-66443127116588498642011-09-21T18:05:16.007-04:002011-09-21T18:05:16.007-04:00Oh, my, how lovely.

I even lost a few plants while we were gone. Your gardens and flowers are lovely!
