Time for a review or recap:

Sunny with a high of 90, very humid until a downpour cooled things off, for a little while anyway.

Well, I guess it's been 30 days so it's time to revisit my Gardening To Do List.
  • Trim shrubs and Bradford Pear - tree yes, shrubs no
  • Fertilize the Rhodos - yes
  • Spray the back-hill with Roundup - yes
  • Cut trees out of the pines on the back ridge - no
  • Weed the flowerbeds, again - yes
  • Spray the weeds in the grass - no
  • Edge all flowerbeds - no
  • Plant 6 maple trees - one
  • Plant 5 fruit trees - yes
  • Plant 6 fruit bushes - no
  • Plant Magnolia - yes
  • Plant 12 daylilies - no
  • Fertilize yard - yes
  • Fungicide yard - yes
  • Mow, trim, and water - YES
Considering I'm about to leave for 10 days and there's a moratorium on digging, I don't think much else is going to be added to the "done" side of the list.

But there's always a bright side, my little Stella's in the back are blooming and looking quite pretty!
