Planting continues

Sweet peas planted! Last year we had an abundance of sweet peas and discovered how much we love them. This year we plan to spread the wealth of the flowers and plant throughout the front and backyard. In past summers we've given vegetables and flowers to our neighbors, Tex and Mary, and will continue doing so this summer. Last year we spent time with Mary, and learned about her English upbringing and her passion for flowers. Giving her a bouquet of sweet peas gave her a such a sweet smile, which only made Tex happier! We will wait with anticipation for the sweet peas to bloom. We received black mondo grass, so D. spent time splitting and planting in small pots. Later this month we will decide where to plant the grass, along with rhododendrons, bleeding heart, and numerous hostas. We are anticipating summer warmth for our veggies, and will soon eat the rhubarb!
