It is hard to believe the summer has gone so quickly! The gardens got off to such a great start with lovely weather. Now, we really, really need rain to keep the beautiful phlox, daylilies, liatris, coneflowers, and all the other perennials and annuals happy. The gardens are filled with butterflies, and we are getting the lavender field sheared. We'll need some rain to get new growth to propagate though. We've had several great groups come to visit, and enjoyed each one. Our trip to Italy was magical, and the HSA conference in Boston was terrific, too. I'll be traveling quite a bit in the coming weeks to do book signings.
