Mums...

 The mums are in bloom here.  I truly need to thin the mums . They are just taking over the front flower bed.  There's sedum and daisies also.  Actually this is pictures from last fall, but the plants are bushier this year. People say they would like some starts....but do I have to get the starts , take them to their yards and plant them too.??  Yes.  I guess I will have to do just that.
  We had more rain , yesterday evening.  Thankfully it has ended for a couple days. Well you know how those weather predictions go.
   Take care and enjoy this wonderful Sunday.  XO

    1. Today it stayed mostly cloudy...saving us from the 90 degree day predicted. It was 82 just a bit ago. Hope you are not getting too warm. Enjoy, xoxo,Susie

    1. Laurie, I went to my daughter's house for brunch and she gave me a new mum....I almost laughed. She is one of the people who have been wanting starts. LOL. So I told her she needs to dig them now. xoxo,Susie

    1. Kelly,
      I wish I could send rain where it's needed. It was muggy here today. I think it is early for the mums to be blooming. Hope you get a bit of rain soon and enjoy your new week. xoxo,Susie

    1. Boston Boy, the clouds kept us from reaching the 90's ...but it was muggy anyways. We better enjoy these good days. I know what you mean about the other shoe...we never know what the weather is going to do at times. Hope you have a fun week. xoxo,Susie

  11. Susie,
    Love your mums and daisies. You know, mums remind me of my high school days. They used to sell BIG mums before the football games, and you would buy them for your special friends, and everyone loved when they came into the classroom and delivered a BIG mum just for them. Those were the sweet days of school Susie.

    love,
    ~Sheri
