The ONLY reason I know that is because I have a friend here who I took garden photos of her yard and she was passing on some knowledge of gardening...you know I need it lol.Debbiedooshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18206855970605853635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977307823050840802.post-6787990651948732342015-05-12T12:50:17.332-04:002015-05-12T12:50:17.332-04:00Your home could be sold right now as is I'm co...Your home could be sold right now as is I'm confident of that! You have a beautiful yard and the inside is beautiful too. I see the comment from Libby above- It sounds like she's onto a good plan for the azaleas. I had something called "voles" that killed some shrubbery. They are like a field mouse but love vegetation and will destroy the plant from the under the ground up to the bottom of the plant. A friend I know lives in Virginia and they destroy a lot of things for her. I guess that's a possibility that those are bothering yours too.Liz@ HomeandGardeningWithLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08470612105590699955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977307823050840802.post-1732999606088054012015-05-11T16:26:02.562-04:002015-05-11T16:26:02.562-04:00That's so weird about the azaleas.

We have a ton of weeding to be done but I haven't wanted to get out there because my allergies have been so bad lately & we leave on a cruise next week. I'm seriously considering hiring someone just this once.Tracihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05394041890043330124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977307823050840802.post-68872224378323657242015-05-11T12:03:32.683-04:002015-05-11T12:03:32.683-04:00Pam: Re. your azaleas.

Then, yes, they looked scraggly and didn't flower either season. Awful. Last summer I made a very slight trench around them and watered the life out of them both. I fed them late spring and then late fall and wow! they bloomed very well this spring!!! So now I will feed them again in the next few weeks, but be sure to keep them well watered all summer. Hope this might help! They are so gorgeous when they do actually bloom!Libby https://www.blogger.com/profile/11556491482494737313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977307823050840802.post-39149919697053265462015-05-09T15:10:35.920-04:002015-05-09T15:10:35.920-04:00Your gardens are lovely!

I am still limited with what I can do outside with my MS. At least I was able to do something. <br /><br />I hope you are controlling the effects of the Lyme disease.<br /><br />It will be easier for you both with less maintenance<br /><br />CindyCynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18110661139781107705noreply@blogger.com
