The most perplexing thing about the year has been the inability to find plants. Most of the nurseries usually brimming with baskets and the like have been slim pickings for the most part. Hard to start planting and get our pots loaded up wit nothing to pick from.
On the hosta front I finally relented and put up a rabbit fence to let my babies grow without having every leaf stripped. The are doing fantastic. It also helps we have a fox living in the holy out front this year. I guess when we are gone the yard gets taken over by turkeys and all kinds of wildlife.
So last eyar I placed a few irises and have been pleasantly surprised with the result.
