At a more decent time of the morning, we have light skies (that's not saying much!) and a steady drizzle. My guess is this will continue on through the day.
Seeding the flats, then out to gather up all the trimmings/branches from yesterday's work (firewood & kindling for winter 2008: hey - that makes it seem rather warm right now. Ooooo - don't want to go there!)
Perhaps this is my way out of the laborious pruning of the Wisteria, which will not look anything like it did last year.
Cornus F. 'Eddie's White Wonder' needs to meet its demise, too - anthracnose, but that will wait until it's dry.
Woke up thinking about Hornbeams, must get 2 more. These are fabulous trees for our region, and horribly underused. Don't know why - no problems associated with them whatsoever. They are stately and have such a nice profile, plus they are good neighbours for the others planted at their feet.

I discovered a cute little Salamander yesterday - he has a tunnel into the border extension that I "lasagna'd" last fall. Don't know where to move him to - but he'll definately need a new residence in the next couple weeks. Ideas anyone?

I forgot about some of the plants that I ordered online back in January - that was a surprise! Nice to remember the plants, but the wallet dove into the recesses of my purse. He'd better get used to it - I just ordered more!
A very Happy Easter Sunday to all - wishing you lots of... eggs?
