Where to start?
--I've seen beautiful butterflies lately. Way cool!
--The floral display at the entrance to the Park is glorious: Bright red Mandevilla in the middle, and flaming yellow Zagreb Coreopsis on either side. They're in very large square green planters that boost them up to eye level.
--The leaves on some of our roses are blighted. I've put together a homemade anti-blight recipe containing baking soda, listerine, dish-washing liquid, vinegar, and vegetable oil to spray on the leaves.
--The local has been eating Yarrow. This is absolutely demented! The only animals stupid enough to eat yarrow are sheep. Speaking f which, I'm about to douse some vulnerable plants with rabbit repellent. Wish me .
--I've planted some more pale purple coneflowers. These have very long taproots that find water deep within the Earth. You won't find them succumbing to drought. And with such long roots, there's a solid anchor for very tall stems so the flowers can fly high and proud.
--The mulberries on my neighbor's tree are ripening. Some of he lowest branches are defoliated -- a sign that the has been busy eating them.

Yesterday I planted my squash seedlings in the ground in front of my home. Liquid fertilizer will be the key to my success in raising them.
Tomorrow I will plant a couple of yellow daylilies.

I chased the away from the ramp at our entrance tonight. I had been eating some tiger lily buds near the road.

I'm about to go out and look. Usually the stuff the rabbit eats grows back eventually. Though if they're flowers or buds, not until the next year.

I've just put some more rabbit repellent on my precioussss plants. It's wonderful stuff containing garlic powder, chili powder, a squirt of soap, and some water. The whole world smells like an Italian-Mexican restaurant.
The only incongruity is that this is a flower garden, which is not *supposed* to smell like that!

It depends where the gardens are.
The one along the entrance ramp is visible over a low guardrail. Few people would get close enough to smell it. Some of the other gardens are the sort that you might walk past.
My sincere hope is that people who smelled the funny smell wouldn't realize what was happening.

I'm sure that they're going to be fine, and that the garden will be,too.

A gardening tip for the rabbit plagued
http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/grapevine/allotment-advice/human-urine-gets-rid-cats-foxes-rabbits-etc_27706.html
The best way to use is Mix with sawdust and spread on the borders, it's a lot safer than dispensing it directly from the original container.
