Debra, thank you for the thoughtful comments. Your sun perennials should do well and provide a fun change in focus. I have always been hesitant to do the ammonia drench because I have burned plants with Miracle gro hose sprayer in the past. Dilution is important, but so it the sunlight level, humidity, and heat, IMHO. Generally, my good intentions do more harm than good. I picked and squished slugs today. The voles are continuing their onslaught on the hostas and liriope, breaching the liriope border completely in multiple areas important for water-flow control. I must regroup with DH and plan our counter-attack. Today, Stained Glass fell over and is in rehab due to voles. Last week, Ani Machi fell and may not recover. I cleared some excess leaves and mulch today so the voles have less cover. On the bright side, lots of plants are doing great. There are so many flower buds everywhere, hosta, lily, and more. Grapes and kiwiberries are growing well. I even started some tomato seeds after a 5 year hiatus.

Update on my 3 roses I'm trying at my new location... First off my favorite one so far OSO Easy Double Red... Own root baby band planted May 2022.. 1. Growth rate has been awesome! 2. Bloom power has been awesome! 3. Blooms last a long time on bush 4. So far disease resistance very good 5. little to no fragrance though is the downside for some... Overall very excited so far with this rose! :-) At Last... own root baby band planted May 2022... 1. slower growth rate 2. Nice looking blooms but only last 2 days on bush 3. Nice fragrance 4. Produced a fair amount of blooms its first 4 months.. 5. Disease resistance so far good Overall I have mixed feelings up to this point...If the blooms lasted alot longer on bush I'd be much more excited... lol... Will see what the future brings.. Sunorita.. baby own root band planted 2022 1. Moderate growth rate.. 2. blooms are short lived 3-5 days on bush 3. little to no fragrance 4. Disease resistance so far good 5. blooms have been on the small side in its first 4 months and more single petaled and ugly..lol Overall totally up in the air with this rose also... I will give it more time though...

Lots of great photos. Of course I love the Tokudama Aureo. Lakeside Prophecy Fulfilled is also a favorite of mine, glad you included a picture of yours. Over the years we lost 4 or 5 dogwood trees and now only have one that was transplanted to the rear of our lot. Our clay soil cannot be amended enough to allow the dogwoods to grow properly and no matter how big the hole we had dug for them and how much top soil we used, as soon as the dogwood roots hit the clay that was it. In the last 2-3 years, the gray squirrels have pushed out all of the reddish brown ones we used to have. The gray squirrels can climb any bird feeder pole, no matter how many baffles we put on them--I finally have taken to coating the poles with vaseline to keep them off. They eat all of the bird seed, peanuts, etc. Then when they are done with that they start digging in my pots of hostas and annuals. Doesn't matter what time of year that it is, they dig and throw out the plants. They are pests and destroy lots of plants. I don't have any toad lily blooms yet--yours are very pretty. My Monkey Business is in dappled shade--it's interesting to see yours on the porch, how much sun does it get? Love the dog photos, thanks for sharing.
