You have all been so busy. I can only say that after two weeks of being a one legged old lady, I am ready to loose it. I did get out on the golf cart today to find several things blooming that I wanted to share with someone, but no one here, so I have chosen to share them with you.

1. Dwarf Daylilies- I thought I ordered all red, but it looks like they are multi colors. Oh well. There were 12, but bunnies are having a good time. It is down by the end of the field in a corner no one cares about and I hated the way it looked. The big green thing above the two lilies is a weed but I am unable to get out of the golf cart to pull it. The other lilies came over from the neighbors. Sorry about that weed.
2. Golden Vicary in bloom. Was sent to me by a friend as a cutting and they are now 2 years old. Put it by the old barn because I thought it would be safe there. Three of the 6 are still alive. Storms and other weather related problems took their toll.
3. We cut down an old weeping cherry tree and I have been covering the stump with some sedum. It is coming along very well this year. I keep putting old potting soil I remove dead cuttings from on top and that is what it needed. Recycle everything I can these days.
4. Blue hydrangea near where the old stump is. This is a very old barn but it is a landmark and we hate to take it down, so we make it look as good as we can.
Will not take any more of your time. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. JB
