stories from my garden, July 2025

It's been a wet, rainy and chilly July here. But even with all the grey skies, the zinnias and dahlias are still blooming, they never fail to brighten things up. They are the queens of the garden.

Letošnji julij je bil deževen in precej hladen. Ampak kljub vsemu sivemu in deževnemu vremenu cvetijo dalije in cinije. Nikoli nas ne razočarajo Res so kraljice vrta.

Even in the middle of a veggie garden, I must plant s sunflower or two.

Ne morem si pomagati, tudi sredi zelenjavnega vrta, sem morala posaditi sončnico ali dve.

Tomatoes are taking their time to ripen, and we have lots of cucumbers and zucchinis. The yellow watermelon was the first to be ready. And we already picked potatoes and planted some salad seeds for winter season.

Paradižnik počasi zori. Imamo pa veliko bučk in kumaric. Rumena lubenica je dozorela prva, pobrali smo krompir in posejali zimske radiče.

July is definitely the time for blackberries. Our single little bush was very productive this year.

Julij je čas robid. Tole je naš mali robidov grmiček.
