I tried something different this year. I planted peas inside and just outside of tomato cages. They are doing great. Also, I planted some lettuce nearby and it is shading the roots of the peas, helping to retain moisture. In a few weeks, all that will be gone and I'll plant carrots there.

The chicken wire is to keep away those pesky rabbits.

This Sunday I went kayaking with family at Mallows Bay on the Potomac River, the site of over a hundred rotting hulls of World War One era wooden ships. This website describes the history behind the site well: The Ghost Fleet of Mallows Bay

One of my peonies that escaped the rain and isn't lying on the ground. If you look closely, you can see a couple of the ever-present ants. Marcia

Audrey, Consider this - in October when it looks dead and ugly, dig up the bulb. Store it in a cool and dark spot. Replant in March (including a bit of bone meal to encourage the root growth). I do that with my cannas. Those who grow gladiolus around here do the same.

Amelanchier has many names, depending where you live. Here in PA most people know it as shadblow serviceberry or just shadblow. I did make a pie from the berries the first year that the trees bore. Apparently it took the birds awhile to realize how good they were. My reason for planting the 6 trees in the first place was for the birds, so I let them have all they want. The berries are very seedy, more so than elderberries, so making jam or jelly would mean more work than I want to do. Littlemonkey, that jam recipe does sound good though. Mine are shrubby trees that sucker profusely. Dh keeps after the suckers to keep them from taking over the yard. Here are 3 of them in bloom in mid April. They like moisture and are planted here with a River Birch.
