Played in the dirt and it was warm!


Terra Cotta Trio

Had several days of nice weather so I was outside digging in the dirt with my sister.
She loves working in the garden. We dug up all the Iris and thinned them, got rid of some weeds, moved a few bulbs, planted some new bulbs, and threw some seed around.

We even did some of this work in the rain. Unearthed a little newt. He might have been napping. Had to rinse him off a bit to get him to move to a safer location.

Today I added a few Penny jump ups to the bed. I really hope they spread...I adore their happy little faces! SHHHH don't tell the orchids :D

Great painting Lee, I love violets. Your garden sounds pretty and it also sounds like you are enjoying your sister's visit.
