OMG, look what arrived today from Brushwood Nursery, Kennett Square, PA!!! This is a Dave's Garden Top 30 nursery. See it at http://davesgarden.com/products/gwd/c/534/ They are awesome little specimens about 14" tall with bright green leaves, strong branches, and even with buds on the rose. I've included the Dave's Garden links for the nursery and links to the nursery for the plants. I am so excited. I am so excited!

2 Clematis Blue Angel http://www.gardenvines.com/shop/small-flowered-clematis-4/cl...

These are for the archway/arbor over the walk-up to the house.

The final major plant purchase remaining is a multi-trunk Crepe Myrtle tree, probably a white, to offset the dwarf magnolia on the opposite corner (west end) of the fence.

I am SO excited! It even makes me forget the oral surgery I had last week and from which I had the stitches removed today.

Oh, and I freed a cottage cheese carton-size passel of ladybugs in my roses in the backyard this evening, just after dark. I'm hoping some of them will hang out for a bit and nibble on the aphids currently hanging out, LOL. Look at what they're nibbling on at the moment - - my Golden Showers, WeeNel.


[edited to say] Oh, phooey! what am I doing to my links so that they don't come up as DG links???
