How pretty is this?  The one on the left is “Niobe” and on the right is “Ville de Lyon”.

After replacing some of my rose bushes that I lost over the winter, I finally got around to getting the mulch on.  But, I needed help.  My three grandsons, Nathan, Josh and Caleb helped and what help they were!!  They really worked hard and did just a beautiful job.  They love helping Grandma, but probably because they get to drive the tractor, which adds to the enjoyment.

Josh planting geraniums.

Nathan and Caleb planting Dianthus.

Nathan and I finally got our garden planted.  We are growing a lot of things up instead of on the ground.  Pole beans, peas, cucumbers, watermelon and cantaloupe.  And we are growing potatoes in containers.
