Passive Gardening

I have to admit that my garden has seen less of me lately. Yet, it has provided endless color and pleasure over the last ?? months. A little bit of intensive work this spring, and it's been coasting through seemingly endless southern days. Now, fall is teasing us with incredibly clear, cool mornings and evenings, and even during the daytime the heat seems to have abated. So now, it's time to head outside again. I think it's time for new pots on the porch!
