    Interestingly enough, what you are calling hot summer color combinations like you are showing here seems to be all I have in the back around the pool. I have all those glad colors you are showing sot hose are my favs in your shots here. Fortunately I think all the blue of the pool is enough to balance all that color out. Or not!

    That’s funny Colleen! The glads were a mixed color package I grabbed at the dollar store; I have to stock up next year, they are just so robust.

    Thanks for leaving a comment!

Watermelon in the Home Garden

Growing watermelon in the home garden is not for the faint of heart. I have plenty of room, and it still threatened to take over the garden. You will either need to leave a lot of room for the sprawling vines or look for varieties specifically marked for containers. Growing it on a trellis is…

Growing Zucchini in Raised Beds

Growing zucchini in raised beds ensures that this prolific vegetable has the best conditions to thrive. You can grow zucchini in pots or containers, but I prefer growing it in raised beds.

How to Grow Onions in Your Backyard

Wondering how to grow onions? I’ve grown onions here at Seven Oaks Farm in several ways: from “sets” or starter plants and from store-bought onions that sprouted in the bag! Onions don’t require much space, and you can grow a lot for the money you spend on starter plants. Let’s take a look at how…
