Hi Susan:
Enjoyed your description of your garden. What are yellow wood poppies?
Are they a wild flower? How old is your garden as it sounds well
established. I started a shade garden in our woods, but the deer took a
real liking to my hostas - so discontinued that garden. Now keep everything
inside my fence line.
It was a great day here in PA yesterday. Picked up a few clematis - well,
actually more than a few for a fence and my bird post to climb up. I'm
really getting into clematis and actually like them more than climbing
roses. Doesn't seem like I have much look with roses here.
Blue birds have been busy in my garden and it's great to hear the little
wren's
song now. Lilacs are starting to bloom and need to dig and divide my dark
lilacs. I don't know the names of these lilacs as I purchased them from a
lady who is now in her late 90's. They are a dark purple double flowering.
She called them French lilacs. Actually, I was buying from this lady for
over 15 years and now she isn't able to do flea markets anymore. I refer to
her plants and shrubs as Rose's garden.
My three little greenhouses are doing well and everything is popping up that
I planted.
Seems my bloodroot seeded itself around my garden and want to move and mark
them so I don't plant over them.
Have a day off tomorrow from watching grandkids so I'm off to a few
nurseries.
Don - your hollyhock seeds you sent are sprouting and I'm anxious for them
to get big enough to repot up.
Well, it's getting late here in the morning and will get an early start in
the garden today and move my daylilies which are still in pots away from the
wooded side of the house. Deer just love this side of the house.
Hope everyone is enjoying great weather.
Happy Gardening!
