It is seasons like this one when my understanding of gardening, as an ongoing process, is comforting. I am starting a new garden bed this year and have not made any hard decisions on what to plant. This was bothering me until I stopped by the Greengirls blog and read The Inefficent Gardener. It is always good to know you have company.
The other day, as we were wandering around one of the local garden centres, trying to make some decisions, I spotted the first hummingbird of the season. I used to sit on my balcony and watch them visit the deep red glads that I had planted there. Hummingbirds are fascinating and have a serious attitude. On the balcony they used to hover within three feet of me and often seemed to be saying, hey, you, what are you doing in my space.
