Alrighty then.
I had a busy day. Moved this rose across the yard this morning. It was time. Gosh, I really didn'tget a lot of its root system but sure hope I got enough! It's in a much better place. Notice very little leaf growth -- I pruned off a tiny bit that was left on the lower part; that top part is the healthiest so, although the rose is very tall with thatleft on there, I am leaving it to see how it all goes.
This is an old rootstock "Dr. Huey" rose -- if anything was ever grafted on to it that part is long gone. It was in dry shade and hanging in there but not doing very well. Thinning branches above it gave enough sun that it put out those nice leaves. We shall see! Now it's in full sun but not too early, I hope -- weather will cool and it will go dormant.
My new orange cosmo from the garden center's gift of seed bloomed today! Two of them bloomed and there are buds.
So pretty!
And I found flowers on the winter savory, and some buds there also. That's a surprise; I didn't expect blooms.
At the garden center getting more manure I picked up these semper vivum on sale for $2.00 a pot. Great deal!
ONe on the left was only IDed as "Mix" but I love that little tubular one! On the right is one called "Green wheel".
Odd size pots, here's a shot with my foot for scale.
I guess they're four inch pots but they are quite deep.
Getting prepared for the big garden bed expansion, and my big wintersowing project!
Yeeeee!
