Days of Rest

I've gotten the red-dyed concrete edging in place, plus I've planted delphinium, and foxglove plants I bought for $2.00ea at a WalMart clearance, plus I have red morning glories coming up in front of the deck. I also have purpler cone flower seed planted in front of the deck. I put a bed of caladiums and rooted purple coleus on either side of the garage door and another new bed with esperanza and purple petunias at the south end of the iris bed behind the garage. Next up: weeding in the garden and cleaning up the edges of the beds in front and west side of the house. I'm also expanding the bird-bath bed to include four rose bushes. I'll make pictures when some of this begins to show up enough in a picture, but right now we're having a nice rain every day, so I'm glad to take the time off. My "man " Carter plans to mow this week if he can get it done between the rains.
