Today at Iten's Acres: May 28, 2012

Today at Iten's Acres:
Feeding the bluebirds--until the belt on the mower blades broke. AGAIN. It's a yearly occurrence. If you need to buy a riding mower, call me. I can tell you what not to buy. Oh well, it will probably work better than a rain dance. What brings the rain more surely than a broken lawn mower? Hope Dave the lawn mower guy isn't too busy. Cutting over five acres with a push mower--no thanks.
A few iris are left--one new one today; maybe one more later this week. Hopefully the lilies will start blooming soon. Firsts today: two wild flowers--I'll need to get Ben to see if he can identify them from the photo shoot on Tuesday. Other firsts--larkspur--purple and pink--and the white rose. The daisies have taken over the rock garden for the time being. I love them. The pink spirea will look marvelous by mid-week in the midst of a sea of dancing white.
Every day brings something new this time of year. Delightful to a weird old man.
