It means a lot. I can relate to the problem of keeping things clean. I was just out with the dogs and had to wash their feet and undersides. They also left some paw prints on my kitchen floor. I am off to mop it all up. All the best and take care in these worrying times!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-58472858613957876912020-03-16T10:59:40.274-07:002020-03-16T10:59:40.274-07:00I love both the Penstemon I featured and really wo...I love both the Penstemon I featured and really would love to get my hands on a few plants. You can't beat hosta for shade, can you? I definitely want to treat myself to a new one this spring.

Last week my purple hellebore started blooming, and of course so many perennials are starting to break through the ground. It's hard, as you know, with multiple dogs to keep things clean. We have 4 rescues; 2 are hospice, one is perfect, and 1 is a psycho who loves being out all morning and early afternoon, even in pouring rain! She'll come in for a few minutes to yell at me how wonderful it is and run back out. I've finally got enough fencing to keep them out of all my beds, so I'm hoping this year I'll see a lot more growth and things not trampled. I very much enjoy every one of your posts, and when I can't get out I go back and reread yours from the beginning. You are such a talented gardener, photographer, and writer! Thank you so much for your blog and sharing all your talents with us!Grace Eph. 2:8-9https://www.blogger.com/profile/14830943906453348970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-33381799682145548362020-03-11T19:51:45.233-07:002020-03-11T19:51:45.233-07:00Such lovely new plants.

That's why ...Hi Pam, I find spring is so busy!! That's why I like to do a little pruning now. Yesterday I noticed rabbits have been doing some pruning of their own. LOL! I certainly won't have to do anything to the hydrangea by the back door. They've cut it down to a little over a foot in height. <br />Yes, I really want to see if I can get a hold of that Thalictrum. It's a perennial that deserves to be better known. I have been able to over winter 'Dark Towers' and 'Husker Red', so I would certainly recommend them. I find Penstemon need full sun and good drainage. I have a small patch of 'Dark Towers' in part-shade and it is struggling a little. I certainly love to add one of the Dakota series this spring.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-46478590150180835462020-03-10T09:08:38.109-07:002020-03-10T09:08:38.109-07:00Thank you for stopping by Sandra.

In the meantime, I take advantage of mild weather when it makes an appearance. By mid-March I am suffering from a little cabin fever. Any excuse to be outside even if it involves getting a few chores done. <br />Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-863592336579555382020-03-09T17:51:46.299-07:002020-03-09T17:51:46.299-07:00It has been mild enough to garden here, Jennifer, ...It has been mild enough to garden here, Jennifer, but I haven't done very much outside yet. I wish I had started on the pruning -- I keep telling myself that it is very early. You show some lovely plants. I love them all, but especially the Thalictrum. And I would like to try the Penstemon having not been able to over-winter one up to now. Great posting!
