Well once again, the promised rain never appeared!! Gita, same thing here, lot's of dark skies and then a big wind, but no water!! It is now very humid. Was extremely hot yesterday. I treated the roses with systemic feed & disease control and gave them some epsom salts. Figured, before the rain was a good time to do it. Ended up watering it all in by hand. Divided and moved some daffodils. Cleaned some late daff and tulip foliage out of half of one bed.Cut down a lot of Allium stalks, but threw the seed heads back into the bed. Then, watered, watered watered!! Did this all by hand as I ran the sprinklers almost the entire weekend.

Chris, I finally found one small Glorioso Daisy seedling from the plant you gave me last year. A little bit further away are a few more seedlings that I suspect are the same. Hooray!! Hope your day is going well.
