llama mama expounded:

anyone miss me?

I did! How's that baby (not so baby anymore!!)

tall & thin and already gardening he has his own hoe, spade,
wheelbarrow, rake & handtools. he's very good at planting seeds in
jiffypots. hopefully he won't pick all the green tomatoes this year
though...

Ah, I remember, almost 23 years ago, holding my new baby, and thinking
"Someday he's going to be big and hairy".....and guess what? He's big
and hairy! And tattoed, but that's another story. His younger
brother is taller than he is!

Every kid that comes into my hard picks my johnny jump-ups, they love
them! I try to encourage them all, kids are so cute out in the
garden.

any tips on easy hosta removal & division?

Hostas are prety easy, just pry them out of the ground and divide
them, they're tough. I've left them out of the ground for several
days, planted them and had them thrive (not that I suggest that
treatment!!)

anyone want a few ditch lilies
(common daylily: Hemerocallis fulva)?

Got way too many of them already!

how badly will a trumpet vine
(Campsis radicans) sucker if i cut it back severely?

It'll sucker no matter what you do to it G

lee still needs to send those poppy seeds...

Oh, yea! Well, wait til this fall, I can scatter them then (if you
still have them)

Good to see you back!
