July In My Garden

We are in July. This is the second month of summer, which in Russia is called the “top of summer”. In general, nature develops according to its own rules and laws. In my garden, these laws of nature are fully respected.

 

Sometimes I wonder how plants survive despite the conditions we humans put them in. Last year apple tree was transplanted to another place, while its roots were damaged. Now I see small leaves on its branches, they show that the tree has taken new roots and lives on.

Two years ago, I decided to transplant the peonies to another sunny spot in the garden. They were sick for a long time and did not bloom, but now I was  glad to see white, pink and red peonies in June. 

Unlike overcoming plants, delphiniums spread their seeds in all directions of the garden. At the same time, the color of the new delphiniums is different. Why?

I am glad that the new varieties of roses can withstand heavy rain very well. Their heads do not droop under the weight of drops, the roses are cheerful.

 

The vegetables that were sown in May are already partially eaten, so I sowed new seeds of arugula and Berlin head lettuce. Cucumbers grow well, they cling to the ropes with their tendrils, and stretch upwards. Tomatoes are getting larger.

Apple and plum trees ripen on fruit trees. Black and red currants, raspberries are poured with juice. I love them very much to eat and also freeze them.

I wish you a happy and successful July.

My friends have birthdays in July, congratulations to you all!
