All this rain! And only in the 50s today. Feels so cold and damp. No yardening for me, but these white azaleas that Mike brought home from a job site photograph nicely with the rainy cloud cover. The client had planted them along her foundation 40 years ago and they were so overgrown for the space. She asked Mike to pull them out with the backhoe while he was there repairing her sewer line, but was really sad about it. When he said he would try to replant them here, she felt much better. It turns out that they were shallow rooted and pulled out easily. They transplanted with no problems at all. That was a few years ago and they have bloomed profusely each spring since.
