My grandsons came over today and did several jobs for me that I couldn't do for myself clearing the way for me to work on things I CAN do. Mostly related to simply cleaning up the deck by the shed prepping for winter storage, setting up a raised area on 4x6' timbers with screening to put garden cuttings and scrap so it dries out not rots waiting for D to get the grinder going this fall.

Nick used a SawsAll to remove a dwarf mugho from a front bed. That plus moving some lilies there will clear a spot for a peony. I am thinking I will place four new peonies in that bed which will leave room for lilies, columbine, poppies and such. Maybe even a few iris. I have several baby Caesar's Brother in a back bed that might do really well there toward the back. I believe CB is a tall iris.
From -60 Alaska to +100 Virginia. Wahoo
