Thanks for asking! I am planning the "edit" right now. I only have 4 boxes left to unpack, then I have to finish setting up the boys' rooms. If all goes well, I should be out in the garden by lunch time today!! There are a few tools I have to buy before I can remove the uglier shrubs etc. I started turing over the vegetable patch and taking out the stones and weeds on Monday, it is really hard work! I hope to get some of the weeds out of the front flower beds today, I also have to cut last years peonies down and tidy the beds up. I'll have to draw a picture of the yard now, and one of what I want it to look like. All in good time I suppose. I'll post them when I have the time. I have people coming over on Sunday for my 2nd son's 3rd birthday. I have so much work to do before people come to see the new house. Well I'd better get at it.

that would be IRISES...but you already knew that right? :)
this I dont know...must admit I have never had those but..I assume they are pretty hardy and can be divided with a spade or a hand shovel...they are bulbous arent they?
I'll take some before pics and post them for you to see. I've already weeded the front beds, but they still need to be personalized. I also hope to get the vegetable patch weeded and turned over. I don't know when to start planting the fruit and veggies though. I'll have to ask my neighbour, her garden is mostly herbs but she's been gardening for a long time, and she should be able to help me out. Oh, I took some irises out of the ugly wishing well- I'm removing the well this weekend- How do you divide them? Should I be really careful? Are they easily damaged?
kind of mind boggling to have sooooo much to do...but in the end...what a feeling of accomplishment...being from Barrie I expect that its a tad cool yet...I still am sticking to the old adage not to plant annuals until 24th of May...I have about 25 pots sitting in my garage to plant cause I cant stop myself from buying them...I am totally ADDICTED!! Cant wait to see your results
