I am so glad my allergies have been controlled with some new meds and I can get out and tackle the weeds before they get out of hand. It also helps that the weather hasn't been unbearable yet, come July I think I might peter out and let them have their way. I planted six new rose bushes this year and despite the maintenance I am really looking forward to the lovely blooms and of course I will be sure to share photos and any problems I run into (be sure to share any suggestions). I did find a few good ideas via Pinterest....I am trying Epsom salt for the roses and on my tomatoes, it is suppose to give tons of blooms and also sweetens tomatoes, who knew? I also bought some Neem oil, which is not a great smelling oil, to help with pests and diseases ,and I'm trying fish emulsion, smells like rotting fish and looks like diarrhea (yuck) but they say that it helps make greener leaves and deeper roots. I started this year thinking I was not going to do much for gardening and ended up catching the bug as soon as the grass started to green and my tulips began emerging. I'm hoping this year will be the year for more yard parties and less "projects". We need a summer of fun and relaxation, ha! That might not happen, wink, wink. Until next time....
Happy Blogging!!!
