Finally, some pictures so you guys can see what I have been up to... besides cleaning, prunning and planting roses... this year I have a different garden... no sunflowers at all... and plants that have been moved etc...

You have been busy Kassia!! It's looking good! Eleanor
Nice garden Kassia. The Rose walk is great.
Hay Kassia, drive on over to Marlboro and do my yard.

Kassia, I posted my thought in the wrong thread last night, but it was that it was a great show, but where is the required rectangular patch of perfect lawn? I can see a glimpse of that elusive green stuff through the trees in your neighbors yard in the last shot. Well, there is always next year. NOT. Patti
Patti, did you get any of that wind yesterday? I lost a rather large plant that got blown off the steps. The pot was smashed to pieces. I was amazed, along with PO because it was a plant we had for years. Because of the fall it broke most of the main branchs.
Chuck
Chuck, yes it was very windy on Nantucket. Steady blow in the high 20's and gusting in the high 30's at my house. Sorry about your loss. What kind of plant?
I tried to take pictures in all that wind yesterday which was a joke. I needed to as I try to keep up with all my bulbs and we have had so much bad weather that I had not taken pictures in days, well except for the day before, but as I was downloading that huge batch that I had spent a great deal of time taking and editing on Sunday, I somehow managed on deleting the whole batch. grrrrrrrrrr. So I had to try even in the wind. I felt more like a sailor listening for the next lull before snapping the shot.
I lost even a great sex scene of two May flies, I think, mating on my DH arm for a full 5 min. I wanted to have them ID in the bug forum. drat.
Wind has laid down. Out to transplant some old rugosa bushes. Patti
Oh how nice everything is looking Kassia. A lot of work but it sure is paying off for you. I love the stepping stone path and hope your roses fare better than some of mine, now gone. Your containers are going to look lovely when the plants grow up, anything filled with plants can't be bad. Congrats on all your progress so far, you can be very proud. :)
Kassia - your garden is wonderful! Pat Austin was worth the purchase, right?
I'm surprised your iris's are blooming already - mine are still building up for the show.
I have a belated birthday gift for you - and your lovely garden.

Looks wonderful, Kass! What a difference a year makes! All your effort has certainly paid off. Congratulations.
Looking absolutely fabulous Kassia. Don't even remember the sore muscles when you look at your gardens I bet :)
It's looking gorgeous, keep up the good work! Clem
Kassia what lovely HUGE gardens you have!!! OMG those will certainly keep you busy....I couldn't even imagine how much work that would take to do and to keep up. Looks lovely - you did a wonderful job!!!
So much energy. I'm jealous. Wish I could see it. Your hard work and garden love will really pay off.
Laurel
looking good.... hope I get that burst this weekend!..... I really hate you for showing me that disneyland rose
