It's been a busy morning. In for a quick break.

Doing a little yard cleanup & beautification, some areas have been neglected.

Pulled out landscape fabric from under our Deodar Cedar. Gave it to the girls, it had worms and all kinds of yummy bugs on it...lol

We decided to move our Hosta's. They do great in this location in the spring, but they get fried during the summer.

Placed some in pots under the Deodar.

Gorgeous irises!

Thank you!💞 I love irises. We're going to be reworking the circle lawn area by our driveway. It's where we just planted a new maple. Anyway, we're going to add iris into there and other plants. I just don't know when it will happen, we have so many other projects to get done.
