A little work while waiting

Today I was waiting around the garden to give a tour to friends and thought, why just sit here? After a nice stroll around I did some weeding and trimmed up a shrub that was blocking the path along the cactus wall. Some lambs ear (Stachys byzantina) is starting to take over the path closer to the steps, but it is a nice cover for what is a dying down Verbascum and already gone Chasmanthe so I let it be. Lots of police were in the area due to President Obama's drive down 280S, but that was the extent of his impact on the garden.

Just as my friends showed up Mimi came by the garden with her two lovely dogs. Always nice to see them!

There is always lots to do around the garden, but it is looking quite beautiful so if you haven't been by lately do stop by and take it in.
