More hardscape work.

I like the clean lines a brick border achieves and it doesn’t hurt that a huge stack of bricks behind the old greenhouse when I purchased the house!

I thought I would try Guara in the garden by the street. It’s dry out there and I don’t water so often since past droughts have forced the city to ration water in the summers. I’m also planting the tried and true marigold along the patio. I purchased a flat of mixed color from the Raleigh Farmers Market.

The NC Farmers Market was busy for a weekday.

Pollen, pollen, pollen everywhere!

Pollen is everywhere and my allergies have kept me informed to just how much is in the air! Headaches, runny nose, and itchy eyes are the usual symptoms. I just have to wash my face often and limit my time outdoors. I have tried mask but the do not stop the pollen from irritating my eyes. Hopefully, we will have some rain today to clear the air?
