Hi Kim

Want some?

Yes that would be wonderful! Can you think of something you'd like? I'll be digging some daylilies, iris, & daffodils here in the next month. Thank you so much.

Kim......Maybe a named daylily would be nice.....I want to wait till they are done blooming before I divide them.....I will probably do it in August....that way it will give you lots of time for it to establish itself in your soil.

By the way....the Sum & Substance Hosta you gave me in the plant exchange is doing nicely...and loves its new home....

LOL and thats just one bed I have 4 more talk about addiction
Glad to hear Sum and substance is doing good. I just picked up a sport of S&S leaves are as big but slightly pointed on the ends and has a white edge also picked up a couple of mini's last month and we won't talk about the coop they're great but its terrible on plant addicts.

heres another pic of a bed behind the garage area trailor at the end I'm using for a potting shed it was given to us last year and who could turn it down.

Beautiful daisys Deann! Haven't we had a nice summer so far for growing stuff? Lots of rain. I love it.

yes its russian sage I have it in several places just to add a little color when the dl's aren't blooming. also have iris in the back rows of the beds in pictures and dwarf iris in the front. Its way more than I can keep up with and try to work too but I just love it when they all go into bloom it even covers the weeds lol.

Hi Breanda.........hey how'd you make out in that storm. We lost power from around 8 pm to 4 in the morning. I would imagine your automatic generator kicked in.

Deann

AuGres, MI(Zone 5b)

Hi Deann,

We didn't lose our power at all here which is surprising since we lose power so often. I really am glad we installed that propane stand by generator though. It is a Godsend when the power does go out. Nothing to do. It just comes on by itself and runs pretty much everything in the house.

If your power ever goes out just come visit over here OK? I'd love to see you.

Our power is still out ,, They are saying noon tomorrow. Power in Glennie ,but not here... I went out at 10 to 6 Monday night. Sure getting yard work done ,, At least the generator is keeping all the food from spoilling.
I have seen lots of new generators going by the house on the backs of pickups. I hope it comes on soon I need to do laundry....Aleta

Au Gres, MI(Zone 5a)

Brenda....thank you for the invite....however, we do have 2 generators....we have one we use strictly for the pump and the other for the house....

Looks like its doing good I'm so glad. I started some seeds off it and some other hosta's I had over the last few years but think I may have some showing color finally I'm kind of excited to see how they do. Thanks for letting me know
