OMG! Froggies!!! YAY!!! I
the little froggies..
Still no blooms on any of my "established" roses.. heck, looks like I lost more than I thought. About 1/8th of my roses in the back are dead plus I lost a tree. My Golden Chain was killed by that last freak snow/freeze we got in the middle of May.. it had started to put out leaves and then BOOM. So it was dead from like 8" above the ground and this was a 12' tree. Sucks. Pulled it out today, gonna replace it with a red maple I guess. Probably Crimson Queen (leaves are red all season). The Fragrant Cloud has started to bloom new blooms since I trimmed it back after planting it, but almost no growth on any of the Palatine roses I got in this year. Probably that last freeze hurt them badly too. Bleh. But now it's been raining kinda sorta almost daily so that's a good thing. Every little drop helps!!
