I did one of those big paper towel germinating grids with gardens of seeds..... so pretty! All kinds of seeds!
THIS solved, hopefully solved, the problem of using the Preen. I had fun doing it with neighbor 2 doors away. He can't really see well with one eye, and between us we have everything we need to do most anything.
We also took cuttings off his Rhododendrons... 3 colors.. red, white and purple. I want the white ones. He wants the red and purple. I don't have any white, but his are beautiful. YES.
I am SO ready to weed and water healthy happy produce. Also, neighbor going to get blueberry bush sprouts and I'll get fig tree sprouts for under the power lines.
My back is still upset so I filled the steroid Rx, borrowed neighbor's stretching DVD and am waiting for Yoga for the back DVD to show up in mail. I'm on ice as I write this.
Tomorrow I'll pick up free Sedum... not sure where I'll put it, but I'll have a wheelbarrow full.

Take it easy on your back, Lighter.
If you're on steroids and ice and in pain,
any wheelbarrow plans maybe should wait a while?
Spoken as somebody with arthritis in spine....exercise
yes, but pushing the envelope gets easier, or it gets
easier to actually rip the envelope as age comes on, imo.
It does all sound lovely. I fairly urgently need to figure
out where to plant the fig tree. Need sunny but out of wind.
Near house deprives it of some sun hours, yet stops some
wind...patio pavers reflect heat, etc. Dunno, dunno.

I walked around the forest with oldset dd yesterday. We found wee Hemolock trees, ailing with wooly adelgid. I plucked 2 and put them in pots with bug juice to kill the adelgid. I hope they do well. Will just have to see.
I borrowed a chain saw on a pole from a neighbor. I have to put it together out of the box. I think he plans to come by and help a bit. That will be nice. I dread picking up limbs after I go all happy taking them down, and I will. It feels so good to get the suckers and unhealthy lower branches out of the trees.
I bought Thai Basil and am attempting to root them 3 ways. In water. In rainwater. In pots. Will see.

Did you find a place to plant that fig tree?
I love all the seed, seedling, weeding trading you've been doing.
All my seeds have started sprouting. It's seems like a miracle to me, but I'm completely enchanted when I see hummingbirds.
Spring is drawing out beautifully. I feel so blessed.
