I love Nicotiana in #margaretsgarden. The scent is powerful. You smell it as soon as you walk in the garden. Flowers close during day, open late aft, night & early morning. Most of these are volunteers that came up from seed. They can last year round. #nola
Today is our last freeze day in #nola. We hit 32 April 8, 1971. I am beginning to plant Summer plants! I am pulling Johnny jump ups & petunias. Tomorrow is our first 90 degree day in #nola set in 2020! #lawx #MargaretsGarden

I’ve got rain. #Margaretsgarden is breathing a sigh of relief. #nola #lawx
I discovered the reason my climbing rose on the arbor does not have more roses. A squirrel likes to eat them. At first I thought he was smelling the roses…nope. Eating them. #nola #margaretsgarden
#Margaretsgarden is catching up on the rain deficit! #nola #lawx
A moment of peace brought to you by #Skye, #Margaretsgarden and bird symphony. #nola #lawx Mostly low 70s now.
#Margaretsgarden is so thankful for the rain! Rain moving NW. 10am mostly low 70s. #nola #lawx
Just when I thought I may as well cut back my plants damaged in the freeze, look! They are leafing out. #margaretsgarden #nola #lawx Check before you cut or pull.

#Margaretsgarden loved the rain yesterday! The weeds did too, but I will not dwell on that. #nola #lawx

Finished the front porch garden. Skye has not dug up the plants…yet! Hate to pull old plants, but they were fading and heat is here. Planted Torenia, Pentas, some salvia. Fertilized and watered. #margaretsgarden #Skye #nola #lawx
It’s time to pull and weed in #margaretsgarden. Hot weather is coming. Spring flowers are fading. Will do a fb live this week on what to plant. @wdsu #nola #lawx
Cardinal has babies outside our window. Looking through a wreath with my grandchildren at the bird in her nest. My youngest thinks it’s a turtle. Happy #MothersDay2025 #nola #lawx #margaretsgarden
