While husband was putting up another metal trellis for the gourds I weeded the potatoes and took the soil temperature to see if it was warm enough...
Cayuga, I liked your post, just because it gives such a different perspective about feeding birds. I also applaud your bravery in trying to scare...
Old Blush is an antique rose, reportedly brought over with the early immigrants from England. It's a great rose, but not the best for cutting...
[ATTACH] This is a bouquet of our Old Blush roses with artemesia as filler. Old Blush isn't the best cutting rose, but I'll take what I can get...
