Spring weather at last !

The weather has been a huge issue with such a late Spring .. but since it managed to show up it has been almost nonstop .. as the work has .. new members as "Royal Wedding" white poppy .. Herbstonne Rudbeckia .. Ostritch Plume Astilbe .. and Morden Blush rose to match Morden Sunrise at opposite side of the island border .. I'm hoping for dramatic impact against Black Lace Sambuca. The Morden Blush is a pale pink to ivory .. it should be striking if it works !

Finally got the old "Pink Turltehead" out and shifted the Chinensis Astilbe to that spot .. still tryng to approch the job of digging out lady in Red fern from behind the Sumac tree to a better "show" place .. also to dig out second Joe Pye from arbor area to place Herbstonne in that spot ...
So many jobs to get done before settling into regular maintenance !
BIG ouch to all this work !

April 16th ............. what a day !

Poor Gardengal !

More of the same .................... sigh !

April 16th ... wet heavy snow with strong winds .. this is something else .. where is SPRING once again ??
