finally mounted on the front deck, my windowboxen show off my flower collection. as time and weather permits, i'm tempted to add two more, one on either side of the current ones, but that may have to wait until next spring.

the trunk full of strawberry plants i brought back from my parents' house are doing okay, i just need to be better about keeping up with the weeding. we're still debating on what'll be going in the other half of the raised beds -- either tomatos or rhubarb, and leaning towards rhubarb. after that, we just need to put the landscaping trim around the clothesline pole, and plant something in it. at this point, i'm thinking bulbs might be a good idea.

anyone interested in swapping rhubarb plants for hostas?

My dad was just saying today that he wants some hostas. They don't have any rhubarb, though. :\

Alas, I have no rhubarb.

But, I did determine what the mystery white and green plant is that we both have and were wondering about. It's called Bishop's Weed or Snow On the Mountain. It propagates like crazy and I actually have to pull some of it out. It has taken over my raspberry patch.

it's cotinuing to invade our hostas, and our poor lilac is drowning in yes, osta, shasta daisies and unblooming lillies.
