well actually, it's toads. Two, at least, croaking away by the pond. But there are froggies in the pond. 10 at least, unless the cat or the crows got one
Also in the garden: the pink rosebush by the deck has a few flowers already open, but has lots of buds; purple & white and white irises blooming, bright pink shasta daisies just about ready to pop; purple velvet and salmon irises budding; wegelia blooming; salvia in the front bed; columbines under the front windows; baby strawberries on the vines. The lilacs are just about done, as are the crabapple and the bleeding hearts. Most of the hybrid tulips never bloomed this year -- the buds froze. The forsythia did very little this spring except grow. It should bloom next year.
The PT has started me on shoulder strengthening exercises. I hates them, I does. well, not really, but.... they're annoying and timeconsuming and all of the realignment and release of tension in the muscles is tiring. Any day that I have PT I can't work in the garden, and sometimes not the next day, so now the weeds are really winning.
