Yesterday, I finished hand weeding my daylily garden and horrid ski slope. It looks terrific, and I am proud of myself for getting it done. It took me 5 hrs. to finish the job. Also, got some weed-whacking done. Of course, when I finished that job, it rained like the dickens, thunder and lightening last night. Quite a show. Very noisy. Looks like more rain coming late this afternoon, very overcast and dark. Happy for the rain for the gardens, but know that the weeds will be encouraged to grow again. Ugh! Found a 2 scapes on 'Cutting Loose', and 2 more on Nicole's Elephant Ears'. 'Emerald Dream' will be my first daylily to bloom this year. It's just loaded with buds ready to bloom. Yeah!
