Your garden is looking great but I know it's hard work. After I retire I sure hope I can get more done outdoors. We're getting tons of rain this weekend so I'm doing the indoor stuff. I hope you continue to blog...you inspire me!

So I have silk pink tulips in a vase and love them like they are real. Most of my flowers don't last long due to extreme heat...I've been watering morning and evenings but evaporation takes the moisture out quickly. My water bill was over $100 because I deep watered our dying pine tree. I managed to save it and need to build a barrier to retain water. Mulching them two years ago caused desert termites to invade my yard and trees. Had to call exterminator and rake up all the mulch. Not sure what to use as mulch so termites are not attracted to them. Your garden is beautiful.

Loving you...Of course we want you to keep blogging.<br />Loving your garden. I have never had any success with either azaleas or peonies and the rotten cockatoos dug up and destroyed my tulips last year.<br />In preparation for spring I too have been weeding. And weeding. And mulching. And planting spring bulbs. Over 1000 spring bulbs. If the pesky birds behave we should have a wonderful display.Elephant's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650565833097914052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-62789030904961319992019-06-13T23:38:17.826-03:002019-06-13T23:38:17.826-03:00Your gardens look lovely!

I have no gardening at all to report because workers have been installing a new roof on my house and creating piles of old shingles, etc., where I was supposed to plant beans and tend irises. They just finished, and now it's raining. I'm glad you're enjoying spring!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03880145777347900626noreply@blogger.com
