this was the only sweet pea that survived the mole that showed up. Before I realized he was there I boldly had Bet direct sow sweet pea seeds and not put them in a peat pot.
So I put my pots of new roses from Heirloom Roses on the naked spots and then I got an idea.
Since I don't have a place for my roses picked out why don't I just plant them here. Well some of them anyway. Because some of them are climbers and as you know from Why I Was Somewhat Glad to Bail Water , the front of the laundry house needs to be unobstructed from winter sun.
I know that I am impulsive and quick to dive in with an idea as soon as I think it and it is moderately confirmed (Bet has agreed that this would be a great spot for roses), but this time
I am going to wait and maybe the fact that I had only one little sweet pea come up is a good thing after all because come September this will be a construction sight. If I can loose a eighteen bloom lily at the foot of Dirt just over a TV cable, I am not silly enough to think he would step around some pretty little roses. So I'll wait till fall. Better time to plant, I can renew my dwindling daff bulbs and add some new interests like crocus or some such spring flower.

Jim gets a bit suspicious when I 'have and idea'. I miss having my daughter around to support my ideas...support always helps, so you should give Bet a kiss for agreeing AND helping.
Of course, sometimes there is a good reason I don't get any support..I too have been known to embark on a plan and then have to rip it up for the construction project Jim had in mind...another of those 'plan lessons'. KathyB.
