Monday – May 30th, 2022 – Dave’s Birthday –<\/p>\n

\"Plants

– “May 30, 2022 – Plants on and alongside the porch” –<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

— It was supposed to rain today – I gave up on ideas of doing anything in the yard and went back to bed.<\/p>\n

— I woke up a little later, when the sun was shining, and fell back to sleep.<\/p>\n

\"Rose

– “Rose Tree with Bud and Purple Smoke Tree In the Background” –<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

— When I woke up a third time and stayed awake, there were raindrops on the garbage can lid and on the hood and windshield of our car.<\/p>\n

— The neighbourhood smelled like lilacs and I found a bud on our new Rose Tree { Hard to see in the photo above }.<\/p>\n

\"Purple

– “Purple Smoke Tree” –<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

— We got this Purple Smoke tree last year and it had blooms, but after we transplanted it here – it changed its priorities from showing blooms to building its root system and adjusting to its new home. This year it has hints of several blooms, but it’s too soon to see them in anything like their full glory.<\/p>\n

\"Plants

– “Plants on our outside Porch and a bit of the North-Side Yard” –<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

— Plants on our outside porch with our yard in the background – including part of our woodshed { behind the blue tarp } and a glimpse of the stone wall holding back a hill.<\/p>\n

\"Closeup

– “Closeup of the tall plant with some variegated leaves on the outside porch” –<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

— The tall plant on our outside porch has leaves that come in variegated and then settle back to remain green.<\/p>\n

\"Hostas

– “Hostas & another plant or two or five in the smallish garden outside our entry porch” –<\/span><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

— Hostas took over out gardens in Connecticut when I was growing up – but up here it seems like starving mother deer sneak into our yard and chow down on hostas so they have a natural gardening ‘service’ that keeps them in check \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
