For how busy we have been this summer, and how much neglect our backyard is doing, the gardens are awesome! This is our view from the sideyard:
The flowers that we planted are all growing in nicely. And the rudbeckias are awesome.
The petunias are overflowing onto the path - just like I wanted!
Our pots are massive - taller than our 4 year old!
The holly hocks are about to take off:
Our veggie garden is setting records for this year:
Our squash has never been so massive and tall.
We have already enjoyed zucchinis, cilantro, basil, and peas.
Our green beans are over 6 feet tall and the tomatoes are massive bushes.
One of my favorite things in summer is to send the kids outside after dinner. The weather has cooled down and our backyard is turning out to be a beautiful place to be.

It looks amazing Laurel! I love all of the colors.
It looks awesome. The opots are beautiful!
Laurel, your yard and gardens are AMAZING! Due to our backyard redo, our veggies got planted a bit late here, so we haven't seen much yet. There is always next year (and the fall).
It's looking lovely!
WHAT?? That looks like a backyard straight out of a gardening mag - so gorgeous!! All you hard work certainly paid off.
Oops , "your" hard work. Hit publish first, edit after ;)
okay fine, i am moving out of arizona tomorrow!!! it looks amazing
What a beautiful yard!
I love your yard - it looks so perfectly tailored (like your sewing!) Ours needs a lot of work - we have a hill that I'm not sure what to do with, but that's ok as the kids still sled on it in the winter (assuming it has snow...)
Oh Laurel! It looks like it was staged for a Better Homes and Gardens photoshoot! I need you to come do some gardening at imperfect. I'm sure you have time for that with your four kiddos, right? :)
I kind of wish you were my neighbor so I could look at that beautiful garden of yours. I am impressed.
The backyard looks great! Thank you for sharing on Saturday Show and Tell. I hope you'll join us again this week with some more great ideas!
