We’ve been watering today. Ron and I placed the soakers in the front garden. He’s got the sprinkler going on the lawn. We are determined to keep our dear ones alive in spite of the weather.
I finished pruning the hydrangeas: six today, nine all together. Made only two mistakes, but broke a lot of leaves because the stems were so brittle.
There were a few old stalks with leaves. Most of the leaves are on new growth. I hope I didn’t mutilate them too badly.
Day lilies are out!
Cleaned up the front corner around the purple hydrangea and put down mulch. Did laundry, changed sheets, made a deposit to James’ account, bought a Bluetooth speaker at iCape which we enjoyed immensely while we worked and while we ate supper.
Met Cindy and Cathy for a really nice birthday lunch at an outdoor restaurant on Main Street in Falmouth.
Bought two plants for the corner garden from a Carver grower who’s set up shop in downtown Falmouth for the last seven years.
