Oh, my goodness, dear friend. One day about a week ago it was supposed to be 90 in Miami where 2 of my brothers live. I'd die!Was 78 today! Beautiful out, got leaves raked in the back yard. Got to wear short sleeves.Still 68 at 7:30 PM. Alas, tomorrow the high is supposed to be only 45. But we're supposed to get some much needed rain.
The wintry mix was yucky!We're supposed to get a wintry mix on Friday.
I hope you were able to go.Thunderstorms just popped up out of nowhere. Guess that's why they call them pop-up storms.Looks like we're just getting skimmed by one edge, nothing heavy as yet but some nice rumbling thunder. Typical March weather but we can really use the rain. Had plans to visit the home & garden store to look at sale shrubs to replace some that died. If the rain passes maybe I can still go.
I did go, thank you! But I came home without shrubs. $40 for a shrub?? I'll dig some natives up out behind the neighbor's back fence and plant them.I hope you were able to go.
Oh, I was going to ask what you bought. I have likes and dislikes. I also made several wrong choices when I first began planting. But now I'm old and barely buy anything for the yard after getting rid of some of my worst mistakes. I paid my son-in-law a lot of money to remove a snow fountain cherry tree and he dug part of it up, and quit. I also showed him where I didn't want him to dig and I guess he forgot. Oops!I did go, thank you! But I came home without shrubs. $40 for a shrub?? I'll dig some natives up out behind the neighbor's back fence and plant them.
It gets so hot here in the summer that a lot of plants just aren't suited. Natives are best. I looked up the snow fountain cherry tree, how pretty and luscious looking! Husband and I go to my mom's house frequently to saw dead limbs and plants. My husband likes doing it. Last summer didn't do us any favors, it was so dry, lots of dead stuff.Oh, I was going to ask what you bought. I have likes and dislikes.

That weeping cherry was admired by my husband. He normally wasn't the least bit interested in gardening, but every spring he admired that tree. Well, the weeping branches touched the ground. They weren't exactly pliable, but I had to get to the trunk of the tree to remove all the ground level ones with a saw because they were longer than the circumference of the bed around the tree. The older I got the more of a chore it seemed to be! Live and learn. LOL.It gets so hot here in the summer that a lot of plants just aren't suited. Natives are best.

Got almost an inch of rain overnight. Cold and dreary today. Currently 53 with a heavy sky. The weather people can't seem to get tomorrow's weather right but try to say what it will be like a week from now!
