Summer is here.

6-4-14 SHORT HILLS: Yesterday was a mid-summer day. It was in the upper eighties and muggy and ended with a T-storm. Both of us drove home in the morning, unloaded and settled in.

More repairs have been done to the sprinkler system, and it is almost fully functional. Today I was back to pruning and weeding with much more to do.

New blooms: iris, roses, tree peony, English holly, clematis, spirea, Asian lilac.
