47°f/8.3°C again this morning, clear and crisp.
It's a great day to get in the garden! And that is where I am heading in a few minutes. First, a look at the flowers that opened over the weekend.

Today: plant something lily bulbs in have had for a few weeks. I hope they are okay. I forgot about them! Then till some more in the vegetable garden, and this evening continue the major weeding I started yesterday. I spent two hours yanking weeds, which were 99% ground ivy. I also want to paint the last porch table. Need more paint to do the patio furniture so it will have to wait.
Off to work I go!
We are having a couple of glorious days with the other weather about to return for awhile.
ReplyDeleteI hope you did well! I love surprises. Sometimes I just forget what I have done...
ReplyDelete...you are 3 to 4 weeks ahead of us!
ReplyDeleteYour flowers are looking fantastic, they are enjoying the good weather.
ReplyDeleteAll your flowers are beautiful. You are way ahead of us.

ReplyDeleteYour flowers are beautiful. Kathy near Chicago
ReplyDeleteWow. How gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteYour Irises are gorgeous!!! I like the effect of the Spiderwort and the old chair. I must try to rig up something so mine doesn't fall over. Which it seems to do every year.
ReplyDeleteI never saw a spiderwort - it looks great!
ReplyDeleteLOL, sometimes I wish indeed my Dad´d been a heart surgeon and my name was "Aorta", it´s weird to read "my" name at this time of the year everywhere...
Oh. I was a surprise, too, you have me laughing here.
I just don´t know when to start planting (on the balcony) - the nights are still pretty cold. In my defense... I grew up in a small town and now live in a city I have no experience with this. Any help welcome.
Your flowers are so pretty. Only daffodils and violets blooming here. There are buds on the tulips I planted last fall. I think that iris is a cross between your yellow and purple. Can that be?
ReplyDeleteYour iris are stunning - such lovely colors! And your spiderwort chair made me smile :)
