My potted bleeding heart vine also came to life. It didn't like spending the winter in the north window, but I didn't want to give up on it.

I divided my beautiful big dahlia tuber, potted the baby tubers in two huge pots and waited. I have one group of leaves popping up in one pot. The others better hurry up because I am short of huge pots for the roses. I may pull them out of the "dead" pot and check for signs of life. It has been a damp spring, hope they aren't soft.

The repotted roses are doing fine - a bit of sulking, a few dropped leaves, no sudden deaths. It was extremely hot and humid the past few days, but will be cool and rainy today and tomorrow and cool sunday. Perfect weather for digging up more plants. Now, I just need some more pots, buckets and the like.

Winston the pug is becoming an excellent gardening companion. Last year he fussed to go inside, this year he wants to stay outside. Our friends/neighbors gave him a steak bone yesterday. He was a happy fellow. We are working on the "quiet" command because he barks at the dogs he doesn't like, the people he doesn't know and rap music. He prefers reggae.
