Summer has finally arrived (almost) here on the east coast.  I’ve added a new feature to my gardens – the darling garden shed shown above.  I’ve pined over it for years and finally committed to it last fall.  I’m busy making a small garden to the right of the shed with perennials and low bushes.  I haven’t had too much luck with roses, but am going to try some shrub varieties as well.  My kitchen potager has been planted with several varieties of tomatoes, better boy, early girl, super sonic and an heirloom variety as well as cherry tomatoes, peas, beets and mixed herbs for cooking.  I love this time in the early stages of summer.  Planting with the hopes of seeing great results later in the season.
