When plants decide to actually bloom and do it well, I am specially blessed. My horticultural thumb is black, not green. This year, well, today infact...the one rose (besides the very old climbing one) decided to bloom! And, our "wild" rhododendrons did the same with gusto. More bloom than any year before are popping out. These plants live in woods behind the house, neglected overall. Rose was taken this evening. Rhododendron bloom was this evening. Little sunshine reaches this yard due to many trees. Any bloom is a blessing! TomDart.
