I love this rose! Now I have to be very careful to close the front gate or the deer will come in and eat every flower and bud.
And tomato leaves are poisonous, but the deer do not seem to care. I left this in the back yard for one night and the deer have eaten nearly every leaf!

For Cee’s Flower of the Day. And in memory of all of our dead.
This tree is on my block.
A volunteer showed up in my garden. I uprooted it and put it in a pot. It appears to be thriving so far, so now I have a bonsai horse chestnut.
Here is the parent tree:

For Mother’s Day, my kids all called. My daughter sent tea and a card. A friend and I went to the Chimacum Woods Nursery and the rhododendrons there are mind blowing. They have been building the gardens there for over 40 years.

For the next few weeks my flowers are going to be rhodys, rhodys and more beautiful rhodys!
