Good Spring to you, my fellow gardeners!

Well, some of my tulips have survived the mole(or moles). This is the third year they have been ravaging my garden and I'm about out of options for dealing with them. I've used traps, garlic,prayers, noise makers & commercial mole repellents, and have moved on to gasoline and explosives. But the tulips made it through.

Birdland, I'm sorry to hear about your dog. I hope she doesn't suffer.

Helen I LOVE lilacs! I think they are my favorite flower! Can't wait to see if mine will bloom this year. It's a baby and someone told me it needed limed so I've been treating it for a year now and am now holding my breath.

And to satisfy my "Elven tendencies", I dressed in my cloak and went foraging in the woods for deer droppings which I mixed into the soil around my delphiniums. Yes, I admit to being strange, but somehow the marriage seems to last through it all. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]
