Sunday in the garden

A somewhat successful Sunday afternoon in the garden, resulting in unseasonal sunburn (from pulling dandilions). Planted the needy marigolds along with a native 'Fothergillia' that reminds me of Aussie bottlebrush. Also planted a lilac – though a little wary, given that I was constantly pruning one last year that is planted in an unfortunate position behind the garage ... couldn't resist the thought of the fragrance. Monday night and just enjoyed a glass or two of wine and too much cheese with Lynn and Katie. Lynn dropped off a bunch of hostas which will hopefully survive the shady front yard.
