Hey. I'm a gardener of few words these days. Hmm. Must be May. "Can't talk--digging."
May will be gorgeous any day now. Oh ya, supposed to rain all day tomorrow. Wah-hoo (emphasis on wah)
"Give me sunshine or give me gumboots!" (It is possible to alter all famous quotes to one's own purposes.)
Here's a few samples of thinkin' ahead and bracing perennials that you just know are going to flop all over your lawn/pathway/small children.
Those are Japanese anemones (above) that will grow 3-4 feet tall and make life hard for the lawn mower if you let 'em. Those are hazel switches, harvested from wild hazel on the property (a great source of switches). My personal rule is "never throw out a long straight bendy switch of anything" because it will come in handy, even if you're just fending off wild animals.
This (above) is a piece of driftwood in 'my' garden, which may successfully encourage the bleeding heart to remain relatively upright instead of weeping all over the place as usual.
La.
