I should do a walkabout video, lol.

You are so right, Iris doesn't like the rhizomes covered. I lost all mine to the borers years back and never replaced them. I only have the dwarf ones now, and a few Louisiana Iris.

Nice to see you got so many things planted. I'm so jealous you have garlic. Almost all of mine rotted over the winter, for the first time ever. Your peony is gorgeous, too.

I like the little wire cages to keep the critters off. I use crushed eggshells around mine when I plant them. It seems to keep the slugs off. I just used the Agricultural Vinegar all around my gardens

Wow, that is good to know, thanks for the heads up. I will prune the lilac after the flowers fall off. It has gotten so large, I think a trim back would be beneficial. Yes, there are different varieties

The chiro was just what I needed; the back feels better now. The yard does smell amazing, and now all the peonies are opening. It sure is beautiful right now.

Thanks, Pam. I wasn't sure he was going to since he took so long to hatch.

You nailed it with the title. It is certainly a beautiful countryside, and those mountains are lovely, too.

All your seedlings look so healthy and happy, potted up. Nice to have a little helper on hand, she's a cutie. Happy gardening.

I love your city! Have fun on the hunt for the cats.

Wow, that sister rose came back great. That is one thing I do miss: having roses. You got a lot accomplished in one day. Just transferring clothes for the seasons is enough after doing lights. Dang...

Well, I know you have tons more to do than I. You will get there. Today, we are putting down mulch if it stops raining. lol

It's hard to believe your state is in a drought with all the snow and rain we've been getting. Which part are you in, East or West? I'm finishing planting this afternoon, finally, and hubby will wash out

I hope you do get some big berries. I need to find more plants for the containers. I lost a few over the winter.

Yep, our days are just like yours. This up and down by 30° is crazy though. I hope your gardens to wonderfully for you.

We are still getting rain off and on. I hope you have a nice summer, Ed.

Same here, cold one day, hot the next two, then two more rainy days, it just keeps cycling. I never have my heat on this late in May.

Grow bags are an excellent way to do a raised bed for little money. I do grow bags too, and they work wonderfully. You did a great job creating a good soil base for your plants. It should give you a nice

Now I want a burger too, lol.

That is awesome, homemade butter, good for you.
