At the PO on Monday, I was delighted to meet and thank the ladies responsible for these beautiful little gardens.
The ladies were hard at it, grubbing up weeds.
We chatted briefly and I thanked them for providing such a welcome sight in downtown Marshall. I should have asked more questions--were they part of an organization? how long had they been tending this garden? did they have others?
But I didn't. I was too busy enjoying the wealth of blooms that adorned these two small sidewalk gardens.
Echinacea in different vibrant shades. . .
Bee balm . . .
Black-eye Susans, a sprawling lavender plant, and some tall reddish-purple plant (Amaranth?) that they said were volunteers--seeded from a planting across the street.
Zinnias and marigolds too--so much color!
Many thanks to those gardening angels--you are deeply appreciated!
