Louise, I want to be on the greenflash Luck List too.

Victor, I did a tour of the garden today and started the Victor List. Much easier for me now that I am retired. # 1 on my list is the promise to myself is that I am starting NO NEW BEDS this year. But #2- some shrub moving, #3-some major tree and shrub pruning, #4- a fat list of plants to propagate for other spots, #5 more clearing on the back hill, # 6 is to plant the intersectional peonies that are on order (coop), #7 plant the big batch of lilies that are on order (coop) # 8 move big berm of dirt that is in the woods to top dress beds, # 9 rebuild several of the stone walks to make them wider and more level, # 10 dig up a big patch of Hemerocallis and replant area .....all for now in Nantucket. Now I have to do the work.

Here are some plants in the garden today. Not sure what shrub is in bloom, but it looks like a viburnum but could it be a witch hazel. We still have a rose blooming and lots of Hellebore's about to pop. Grass is still green. Patti
