May Dreams Gardens

Happy May 1st

May 1, 2010 By Carol Michel 15 Comments

All year I dream of the days of May when the sun is warm, the sky is blue, the grass is green, and the garden is all new again!
Welcome to the month of May at May Dreams Gardens.
Welcome to a garden that is nearly fully awake now with new blooms, new leaves and even new weeds nearly every day.
I enjoy this month in my garden to the fullest extent possible, as I watch the transformation from spring to summer, from the possibility of frost to the promise of long summer days.
While this transformation goes on, I’ll be spending time in the garden, doing what I enjoy most – gardening.
And hoeing, and planting, and weeding.
I’ll fill containers with blooms and plant the rest of the vegetable garden.
I’ll weed and plant.
I’ll mulch.
I’ll mow.
I’ll just be in the garden, working to fulfill my May dreams.
Happy May 1st!

    I love May also. I am just obsessed with getting everything done, but is the garden ever done?

    Happy May 1st to you, Carol!

    May is like Sunday afternoon to me, with Monday looming. It's all still good, but the wonderful gardening days are coming to an end until October returns. I am already shelving several gardening projects I'd hoped to get to this spring but didn't because of a busy work schedule. They can wait until fall.

    Happy May Day to you, too, Carol! I know this is the month you've been waiting for for so long; may it bring you lots of sunny days and gentle rains (at night!) for perfect gardening weather.

    Carol and how happy we gardeners are that May will bring all the promised flowers..sure wish that April could have had more showers!
    I can't tell you how many times I've pulled out the hose to water my plants. Happy garden season to you!

    So many things to luv about the month of May including the fact that I still feel like I have some control over what's going on in the garden. But then… it all grows too fast, too lush and out runs me.
