I've already been watering, though it has been "watering in" plants.

Three roses planted, in addition to the tree peony (which hasn't wilted!).

Front garden bed expanded but not complete as best friend hijacked me for a fun road trip this afternoon :130:

Where did ya go?

Summerland is having their plant sale May 5th and 6th, there's a road trip right there.

May 6th, SORCO is having their open house for the rapters. JFlem, you ever go to a rapter bird rehab place before? 30th anniversary and all that.

We've been using rainbarrel water for our plants. :130:

Sorrento! And we did some antiquing along the way :)

Ooooh - I may do the Summerland plant sale - though my food garden beds haven't been prepped yet.
I love the Sorco open house. I haven't been for a few years though . . .

We go every few years and with this one being a special one, it's on the agenda.

Tree Peony is still alive! I have great hopes to see flowers this year :up:

Pruning has begun. I look like I was attacked by a rabid cat. :138:

My zuc seeds have emerged, so, feeling rather sassy, planted cuc and bean seeds today.

Glad the peony tree survived Lady T :biggrin:

Radishes have sprouted in the garden and a bunch of stuff has sprouted in the greenhouse. :130:

I once hand dug out two giant tree stumps right here on this property. Looks like I'm going that route again.

Absolutely done with frost!

Feel safe and secure relying on SWP (skunk weather prognosis). Groundhog now a set of mittens.

Hot sunny weather on my days off.
Rain today.
It wasn't too bad, at first. Then got heavier. I feel bad for those who tried to have a yard sale today and the Boat show people.
