Walking through our hot, August garden last week, here are some of the things I saw and loved:
Cosmos Growing High into the Sky
Garlic Chives in Bloom
And from my garden at home:
Orderly Okra
The tag that came with this plant reads:
Okra, Jing Orange
60 days. sun. drought tolerant. Lovely pods area deep reddish orange and quite colorful. This Asian variety produces lots of flavorful 6″pods. Unique. Pick pods when young and tender. (I recommend picking at 1.5-2″)

I love these photos. It’s nice to see thriving things in August!
Great job!
Thank you, the rain last week gave our garden an extra pop! We are grateful.
Even I might try that recipe. Cute article! I had cosmos one year, it reseeded and came back. But , no blooms. Is that the norm?
I really like what you guys are up too. Such clever work and coverage!
Keep up the very good works guys I’ve included you guys to our blogroll.
Thank you very much. Wish you could come see us!
