Out in our yard

The first Day Lily was in bloom today.

I pulled vines and growth that I don't want out of the Day Lilies in the berms. I had a talk with them and told them, the vines that is, that they can grow on the rest of the berm but not in with the Day Lilies. The Ants and I have the same agreement. They stay outside and I don't burn them out and relocate them into the woods. That's working so far.

The slugs ate some of our squash so Joey is out to get them. Looks like Oatmeal makes them swell up and burst! Beer drowns them. She's going to try the Oatmeal first. Why waste good beer:) She planted some Watermellon in the vacant hills. We'll see how they do...

As I trim around the yard I can see that it is going to be a great year for Shasta type Daisies. We already have some in bloom and dozens of others are getting ready to pop...

I cut some of the tall grass up in the east corner of the front yard last night and laid the cutting in the path and dollop under the tree.

I also made a fence trellis for the wild grape vines and tied some up to it. I'm not sure if they are going to like this. We'll see...

We replanted the tomatoes and peppers last night. Hopefully it'll warm up and we won't have another frost (I'll cover them this time).

Looks like we might have lost the Tomatoes and Peppers in a frost last night. This morning they looked alright but when I came home from work they were all wilted. I gave them shot of manure tea and watered them. We'll see if they come back during these next few days of warm weather.
