Gardeners Love a Rainy Tuesday
The sunny breaks will be bring our blossoms out very fast. This weeks fun flowers in my yard are tulips, phlox, peony, and lilacs. My only tips are these two..
1. Use a tomato cage to support the top heavy peony blooms. Enjoy the ants marching on the buds, they really seem to enjoy this peony nectar.
2. Cut a few lilac buds as soon as the little purple pods crack open. Lilacs in a vase in the house have great aroma. Too strong for some. Lilacs love to be pruned.
