I thought a garden chat and photo thread would be a good idea.
This way, we have a space to share current pictures and discuss dandelions and other plants.

It takes time for the garden to become colorful. If it is as dry and hot where you are as it is here, give it even more time. Despite watering, many new plants have already died this year.

I’m glad I didn’t plant the fruit trees.
Except for the hedge, lawn, and steep slope, I have already watered everything. Still, the hollyhocks have only grown to about hip height.

but I also think it’s an above-average amount of space (large garden) - right?
Yes, we do have quite a lot of space here… over 1000 sq.m. (10764 sq.ft). The work is pretty manageable… once it’s in the ground, most plants grow almost like magic. I don’t water much. Only my containers and the greenhouse really need attention.

Just a little over 1000? That looks like 5000!

It really looks much larger. I would have estimated it to be bigger. I also have 1000 m² (10,764 sq ft) of green space. It feels much smaller.

We saw this pretty plant at our hotel complex on Kos. The flowers feel straw-like and dry to the touch. I searched the internet but couldn’t find anything. Maybe someone here knows what it is...? Best regards, Steffi

Thanks to your help, I found out that it is Globe Amaranth. I brought some seeds with me... Now it’s growing here at home too.  <br />
