My To-Do List . . .

My to-do list is short this week, not because there is no work to get done in my yard (there is a lot!), but I have a sore throat. This picture shows a silver sage plant that is in a large pot on my back patio. A shrub has overgrown the pot, but the sage makes the best of it. Yes, the sage does look kind of droopy--I haven't been watering it! When I realized my mistake, I soaked it good and it was happy once again. This is a reminder for you to water the pots in your garden. The garden soil (in the ground) may appear moist, but the pots depend on us to keep them watered--at least until the rains start. Yard sprinklers need to be adjusted to water once a week, unless there is rain, of course.
