Yay, managed to get this up on time even if not much has changed aside from more storm damage. This has been a tough year on the garden.
The weather has beat the heck out of many of our taller soft stem plants (soft as in herbaceous, so not a hard woody stem), and I need to cut some of the milkweed back so they might yet flower again now that I’ve spied a few solo Monarch butterflies pass by in the last few days. (I have posts about recent sightings forlornly unfinished in my drafts. Not enough hours in the day.)
[Note: I’ll later note prior office window views here that were taken near to this date when time allows. This note will be deleted once that happens.]
