The BIG deal for me .. was how ASTILLBE like they are .. and I totally cannot grow Astillbe !!!!
They are a wonderful accent plant in a large bed ..

The furnace has come on twice in the last hour ..
Tomorrow IS July 1st .. right ??

Really pretty lily. Hope it doesn't rain where you are for Canada Day. They say it's likely to here. Will put a damper on the celebrations, but I think I'm just hoping to get in some gardening.

Lovely Lily Ms M. Warm and sunny for us for the next days. The lawn is going brown, the lavender has gone to seed, the fox tail lilies are almost done flowering and we've had 2 cherry tomatoes off the plant. Drove to Nanaimo to meet the folks half way, had lunch then back home. Quiet evening tonight, will sort our camping gear tomorrow to see what's good to go and what needs work. Hope everyone is doing well.

HAPPY CANADA DAY !!!

Thunder Bay is going to be rainy and cool .. in fact .. the furnace ran most of the night !!

MAY go to one of the local nurseries that is open and having a HUGE sale on trees and shrubs (30-40% off) I usually plant a tree or a shrub every summer .. right now I am in the throes of 'WHICH ONE .. and .. WHERE will it go'?
Lotsa places to plant but .. I would like to be able to SEE what is planted from somewhere in the house.
Honeysuckle and Ivory Silk are on my 'short List' .. but .. once I get to the nursery that'll fly out the window I am sure !!!
REALLY like Forsythia too ...
Stay tuned for my 'vacillating purchase' LoL

BBQ tonight .. or .. will it be GEORGE FOREMAN to the rescue !!


Enjoy your day where ever you are ^_^
