The Berm...June 29/08

What a nice improvement. When the flowers all fill in it will be fantastic!

That is just incredible. It has already filled in so fully, GranT is right, when that blooms, it’s gonna be a traffic stopper!

I’m a little disappointed that the right side is still so small with bare spots.The earwigs got some of the young shoots.Had to put destroyer down to get rid of them and it seems to have helped they are starting to get a little bigger now.Come on and bloom please.

Well, just think of it this way … your blooms will just be a little staggered this year. It truly is a beautiful garden Bon.

I am like you as far as waiting for things to bloom. I have buds but no flowers on a lot of my new plants this year. Seems like it is taking an eternity … and the downpours we have gotten for the last couple of days has knocked off all my rose pedals and really beaten my containers. Looks kind of pathetic at the moment …

I know what you mean GramtT.It has rained here nearly every other day since May 24 weekend.knocked my peonies out too. Luckily my plants seem to thirve on on the rain though.I have been waiting patiently to paint the outside shed.Every time it dries out it rains again. All the more time for weeding ( lol )

This kinda reminds me of that song “I Believe In Miracles”.Not sure if that’s the title but it’s in the song (lol)
