We are working on our gardens this summer and fall.  The fire smoke (we live near Spokane) has delayed a lot of our plans, but we hope to be back out there very soon.

Gardens are never finished, which is one of the things I enjoy so much about them. There's always seasonal changes, plants outgrowing a space, shrubs moved for deer traffic (we have a few of those), and new ideas for what to plant next.

Do you have a favorite time in the garden?  Quiet mornings, sunny afternoons, evening sunsets, maybe a moon garden?  If you could plant one new garden space, what would it be?
