    If I'm guessing correctly, Bruce's pond liner is called clay! Yeah, I want to be a meteorologist when I grow up. What other line of work lets you be wrong half the time, and you still don't get fired?

    Well, actually, he was ailing. He was having a low blood sugar, and I convinced him that he needed to take it easy. So, I got to finish the lawn. But, yeah... 54" deck :drool You already know that I have tractor envy... Does it have a cup holder? And do you have a golf course quality...

    Hubby let me ride HIS mower yesterday, and I didn't break it!!! Lots of good clippings for the runs, and garden. Rain a bit last night, and overcast/sprinkles this morning.

    Nope, the berries in question are definitely NOT currants. The largest tree/bush is about 8' tall, and the leaves on it look like Saskatoon, but I do not believe it is that b/c the blossoms were super tiny, and the fruit set does not look like Saskatoon. I did a search, and could not find any...

    Black here as well. As kids, we used to dare each other to eat them. I bet they do make a nice jam, but I've never tried it, as I'm sure you would have to use so much sugar, it'd make me feel guilty to eat the stuff! OH, choke cherries are truly a gastronomic experience. You've not truly...

    @bruceha2000 True, that. But, I'm wondering if the bulbs have a built in system to move up in the soil aside from the frost heaving. New crop of rocks every year. When I see you, I have a couple of interesting finds to show that have surfaced in my garden over time!

    They should be fine. Are the daffodils scattered through the bed? If they are in a confined area, you might consider pulling them out so you can give the bed a real thorough cleaning. Over time, bulbs tend to get crowded, and benefit from being lifted and divided/spread out. Then you can lay...

    Yep, common name for those is day lily. Hemerocallis. Breeding of day lilies has come a long ways in the last few years. Do a google search for them, and you will find some that are absolutely breath taking. Add to that the fact that they are practically indestructible, and come in many...

    Lilies with bulbils on stems: tiger lilies. They grow in abundance here. I never planted any, yet had one show up about 3 years ago. I have them popping up in abundance now. They grew like weeds at my Uncle's property in Charleston, Me. No doubt they have spread across many old farmsteads.

    Sometimes ripping out a bed and starting over is the only option. Even then, you must be on top of it and not let your guard down. I have done 2 of my flower beds with hubby's help for one of them. With that one, I lifted out all the plants I wanted to keep. He then built a new border around...
