Are we obsessed with plants?

David got the rest of the mud spread today, with the help of the young fellow from across the back--who came over and volunteered. Everyone agreed that we have too much mud! So it's all piled up inthe backyard. The father from across the back expressed some interest in acquiring some, maybe later in the year. Good thing it's done, as it's been raining--even thunder and lightening--since about supper time. so the urgent work is finished. Over the summer we ( the royal we) will have to dig out another flower bed. Our Lily of the Valley is invading the neighbour's garden and has to go. We put a few clumps in the front flower bed where it would be contained, and if it takes root, will get rid of the rest. I've moved the Lily of the Valley with me from house to house, having taken the original plant from the garden on Maplewood, just as David has moved his Ladyslippers, ever since we bought the house on McMeans. The other plant that moves with us in the rhubarb. Now Dianne has asked for rhubarb, so I'll be taking her a root when I visit wiht "Ravenesque the first Monday in June. It seems funny when you write up and/or respond to a written offer on property, and spend more time listing the things that will be moved from the garden, than you do the details about the house itself!
