welcome !!
Awe thanks wanttobegardener & cacolos....
Do either of you have any coral bells? I planted some last spring and I'm not sure if I should cut them back or not? They have burnt edges from the winter...
I've heard some are sensitive to cutting back? They were so beautiful last year!
Peach melba and marmalade...I can't wait to see all the new things pop up that I planted last year!
Have a Wonderful Sunshiny Day!!

Welcome!!!
Thank You flowrgirl1 ;o)
Hey detheo,
You can cut off the burnt leaves it helps clean 'em up! But lots of us don't have time to tend to every flower and this is one that will come through looking just fine as the spring eases in!
WELCOME!!! see you around the sites you will love it here!!

I'm sorry detheo. Somehow I missed your welcome topic. I hope you are enjoying your time spent on Daves and I'm especially glad you're here in the Michigan forum. As for your question, I like to do my big cleanup in the fall. I go through and cut everything down and get all the clutter picked up so in spring I don't have to disturb wet soil and compact it doing all the cutting and picking up. Your perennials will be just fine with a major cutback.
Brenda
Welcome to a wonderful site. We look forward to hearing more from you.

Potted up over 70kinds of lilies about 60 hosta and 20 coral bells and miscellaneous perennials and..............!
waited all winter to get out there-was sore the first couple days-very sore!!! :)

Dori, I got tired just reading your 'job list'. Wow, woman - how do you do it all? I finished pruning my roses today, and painted some trellises and garden furniture. It is so wonderful to see things warming up, isn't it?
yes i have been working VERY hard this past week-even with 2 grandbabies here all the time! :) They package it in a bottle-energy drinks!!! LOL
Yes the weather has been great this week-hope it doesn't change back to cool!!!!!
early warm spring- i vote YES!!!!
Oh yeah and got my other BABY on the road this week-I called dh and quoted the commercial: When you turn your car on -----does it return the favor-OH YEAH!!!
he knew i was cruising on my garden break-had to mail out some plants LOL!!!
have FUN everyone it is the KEY!
way cool car !!
Omgoodness we are camero lovers too....
WOOO HOOOO...
My husband had a 67 camero....unfortunately I sold it...
Mr. Racecar vroom vroom got in to much trouble with it!!
And then I had a Red 76 camero that I just loved....
I drove that till the frame cracked in half, he didn't feel like
restoring it again...I cried when the tow truck came to take it away!
You have an awesome ride there...I'm way jealous...
Although DH did go look at one last week to buy...
didn't pan out...it wasn't at all what the owner said it was (condition)
and he wanted to much $$ for what it was...DH said it looked like
the guy took a paint brush and painted it LOL...I can only imagine.
Have fun in that lil camero this summer ;o)
