We’re “planting” the roses…

Coral…. and pink! HAHA- This past weekend I planted some coral drift roses and pink double knock-out roses. I hope they take, dang roses are expensive! Now we just need to get a few truck loads of mulch and lay it down.

I also planted two Brown Turkey Fig trees. We named them “Fig” and “Ro”) like… Figaro, the cat off Pinocchio. We got them from the BEC “Energy Saving” Arbor Day foundation sale, did you know BEC does that? They offer you two trees at half price when you order through them around Arbor Day.

I chose Lavender as one of my potted plants on the front porch, it smells so good and even better…keeps the mosquitos away! I haven’t been able to get a good picture of our new patio furniture, but I love it! The ferns I bought the other day have already doubled in size, they really pretty!

Jason had to climb up on the roof and repair some soffit- We had a squirrel die somewhere in the walls- MAN talk about Stiiinnkkky!! I think Jason is having fun taking care of the yard, I know I am! There’s something new I find each time I go out there- The purple petunias that are EVERYWHERE, I potted one and gifted to Rhanda and Brynleigh this weekend. The previous owner called them “Aunt Jackie’s” I name my potted plant “Aunt K’s ! oh! and I finally found the blueberries… I added some flowers up by the front gate and mailbox too, i hope they do ok too- I forget to water those and there’s no water hose near by…. oops … We still have a TON to do but it’s been fun
