It really is time to start gardening. Most of the weed eating migrants are moving on, and the three Alan's Hummingbirds that were in the garden for several years have flown away. They've been replaced by the more normal flights of battling Anna's Hummingbirds and Costas. I love to see the tiny Costas but I really do miss the Allen's. They were so friendly they were almost like pets.
The big Lady Fern broke through it's pot. It and it's sister have to be divided and I hope to get one more plant out of the two. The picture is not quite exactly like the ferns that I have but close. We came hope to these beauties the other day:

| You may get sick of seeing these year in and year out. But this year they really set out so many blossoms that it was a shame not to show them off. They only bloom for a day or two. |

| The best rose of the bunch. Apricot Nectar had about 40 roses on it last week. |
I'm tired and I'm going to bed. I had a very busy day doing so little! I'd love to not be so tired. Who would think that doing mostly nothing can make a person tired, but it does. Sweet Dreams!
I love the cartoon. I got all the stuff out last year, so maybe this year I will do my container garden.

Hi there, and thanks for commenting. :0) Go for it. I'll cheer you on, too! Gardening, any sort, is good for the heart. I love it. Glad you liked the cartoon. Six chicks is one of my favorites.
