It has been three years since I started sharing my gardening woes and successes with my Garden in the Rough blog friends. In that time I moved back to the land of black dirt and generous amounts of rain and high levels of humidity. Due to the demands of a new job and the desire to spend most of my free time with dad gardening has been limited to three flower beds, potted flowers, and a raspberry bed. The time, money and work put into the gardens last year paid off this year.
After attempts to grow luscious colorful gardens in the desert with limited success, I am shocked at the fast-growing perennials growing in our Iowa flower beds. I want to rush out and buy more plants. Patience is required as I must keep the gardens manageable due to all the projects I am working on. I love looking at the plants and blooms as I walk through the wet grass.
