• Simply said, Delightful.:
  • Deborah Elliott: I hope you are able to save the boxwoods. Leafminerrs have been a problem for some of my plants, but not my boxwoods — so far. Voles are real pests, but my neighbor's cats and an owl family seem to be putting a dent in their population.
  • joenesgarden: Cyndy, I'm in spring heaven.
  • Cyndy: Oh isn't this weather just unbelievable - it's so good to have dirty hands and sore muscles again! Glad you were able to get outside too...
• Spring promises – GB Bloom Day:
  • joenesgarden: Jean, these iris are only about 4 inches tall and they don't last long, but they bloom when nearly nothing else does. You definitely need these in your gardens.
  • Jean: Joene, I can't fgure out why I have never planted this gorgeous species of iris in my garden, but clearly it's an oversight I need to rectify! -Jean
  • joenesgarden: I'm going to watch the progress of my budding plants closely over the next few days of warmth, Debbie. I expect things to really pop.
  • Debbie: Hi Joene, Happy Belated Bloom Day! Your irises are so colorful even when deluged by rain. I imagine the next few days of sun and warm temps will make your garden come to life even more than.
  • joenesgarden: Cyndy ... the iris are little but pack a powerful punch.
