I had to bring a few baby plants inside the past few nights, since they're still in their grow pots, but the ones already planted in the garden are on their own. I hope the old saying "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is true, otherwise I did a lot of work for nothing! :2mad:
It was 46 degrees this morning and overcast - quite a change from the high 80s we've been enjoying lately! Confusing to plants and humans alike. I haven't been outside yet this morning to check on the garden - but looking out my kitchen window at the deck area, I see the line of rhododendrons are taking their turn showing off, and they're gorgeous! :thumbs:
The purple rhododendrons are really spectacular when they come into bloom this time of year, especially if you have mature, five-footers or so. It's too bad they don't last in bloom longer, but that kind of show needs a lot of rest between concerts.
