A very enjoyable day at The Mantle’s. Apple tree and rose pruning. Spanish bluebell extraction (and to think we got rid of every single one last year). Cheese on toast and slab cake. Omphalodes and hellebores. Magic waterproofs that worked once more. Waterlilies and a truck load of frog spawn that you can just about make out in my murky photograph.
Too soon? Are all those fidgeting bullseyes doomed?
Is it not too late for frost?

That was my topic for next week, now that we are past or last frost date. However, one of the regions I write for is not yet past their frost date, and Beverly Hills (in the Los Angeles region) does not even have a frost date!

?! Homelessness is worse in the Los Angeles region than it is here. It saddens me to think of how many are out in the weather, even if it is pleasant most of the time.

Very sad indeed.

That is partly why I write my other blog; although the situation where I write for is not very sad. There are actually a few pleasant topics to write about.

I must have the same strain of bluebells….reappearing like magic even when you think you virtually sieved the earth. Maybe the frogs remember how hot it was last February……silly frogs! Silly us!
