Evening in the garden

It's Summer and time for a nice French rose to accompany me on my evening walk through the garden.

French peppers

Last year in Provence we visited a M. Bricolage store, very loosely translated as Mr. Do-it-yourself. Sort of a smaller version of Home Depot. There was a seed display and I got some cayenne seeds. This Spring I planted them and all 12 came up. Here are three of them, plus an Indian pepper, in their new home. The hollyhock is from seeds that were on a plant in front of our rental, so it's an all French pot. I'll keep you posted.

For David Howard

David, I found some new wheels that would look perfect on your car! And maybe some tattoos!
