Thankful Thursday In The Garden


Ping welcomes you to this week's venture into
Thankful Thursday.

Mom and Dad bought a new plant.
Well I guess it's a plant.
It's kinda big.

They dug a big hole for this Japanese maple.

They also dug some holes for those hostas and
impatients.

Mom loves hostas.
But she got bit by yellow flies doing this.
Mom does not like yellow flies.
They will not stop until they bite you
and they leave a nasty mark.

But the knockouts are well knockouts.

Mom said bad words at that critter.
Because he eats her plants.
Especially her hostas.

We hope you enjoyed this week in our garden.
How is yours?

  3. It sounds like your pretty garden is being invaded by some very annoying critters! I think you kitties should eat them!

  4. Mommy recently found some grasshoppers on her plants. She likes them grasshoppers and even caterpillars (crazy, right?). The only thing she can't stand would be the flies (and roaches).
    The pink knockout rose is amazing!

  7. Your garden is lovely. Unlike ours which is nonexistent. Jan gave up since she has a black thumb.

    We never heard of a yellow fly before since we don't have them here. But evidently they do have a painful bite.
