08.15.2025 | Ordinary Friday

It is sunny and humid again today here in the Carondelet Garden in south Saint Louis.  We may see a few afternoon clouds roll in with winds out of the South at 5 to 10 MPH.  A Heat Advisory is back for the next five days or so.  High temperatures near 100-degrees.  I'm ready for Autumn!

The patio plants have done remarkably well in spite of the weather this season.  We have been lucky in our propagation program and haven't really had to purchase too many plants for our patio.  You can teach an old gardener a few new tricks.

We are heading out for the Garden Doodle's playdate.  She wants and needs the social interaction with other doggies.  It's good for her little Doodle brain and it gives us a chance to do a little antique shopping.  Fun stuff for a hot Friday.

Here's to a little fun and relaxation after a busy week.  If you are ables, take a little time for yourself to reset and relax.  It's good for the mind, body and spirit!  That's all the news from here in the Carondelet Garden.
