My Yellow Rose Changed Color
The rains have been both good and bad for the front garden. I think I need a lot more mulch to deal with the grass problem. I am still a little bit peeved about it. I can see the grass there, growing, and growing. Bermuda grass is quite persistent. There is a lot of different grasses in the front garden. Anyhow, I wanted to show you my new rose. It is the same white rose, but it has a different color. The silly sticks gave it a slight red coloration. I do not know why they color the silly sticks...
Orange Flowers and the Like

I made a decisions. At least my brother decided. He moved the silly caterpillars to the Ferns. He was tired of hearing me complain about them. The stupid bugs almost killed one of my plants. I love pollinators as much as the next fellow, but there is a limit. The bugs were ok, as far as my brother told me. They did not take well to...
