Just in time for Mother's day and planting season, those of us in the northeast are looking forward to over a week of rain.
I really dislike gardening in the rain...but, the plants actually love it. In fact, optimum conditions for planting anything is during cloudy weather. There is less shock to the plant when the skies are grey.      13. mei 2006, 04:22:14 Onderwerp: Re: Is it raining everywhere? ajtgirl: We've had some rain,not too much tho. 13. mei 2006, 04:41:37 Onderwerp: Re: Is it raining everywhere? ajtgirl: same here, Ma'am - what the Fox said. but that's to be expected...the three of us aren't all that far from one another.

You are right...today we had a surprise visit of the sun. I was able to plant up some things in my mother-in-law's garden in between showers. Lucky! And she loved it. I pulled out 3 overgrown rose bushes and transplanted them for her to another area. Then I put in 3 trellises with clematis, along with blue salvia, rose pentas, tricolor sweet potatoe vine, pink shades gazania and white sweet alyssum. It's going to be very pretty for her all summer Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies!  14. mei 2006, 05:55:29  What is the difference between a gardenia plant and gardenia bush?
