The Hole Story
My bulb is gone, and what's this hole?
I think it was dug by Mr. Mole.
But I think the tenant is now a vole.

Then there's the sad story about Podophyllum veitchii... a most beautiful Asian mayapple, it didn't appear and didn't appear this spring, so today I gently dug down into the soil with a plastic spoon to check it out. Suddenly the soil gave away, dropping into a large burrow going straight down into the earth, and no Podophyllum was to be seen... it's obviously a mole burrow, which came right up under my expensive mayapple, and it provided a sort of vole cafeteria line. Sometimes gardening is indeed like dumping your money in a hole!

Ahhh! The pain.
That's so sad.
In other news - I really miss your links list. Hope it's coming back someday. Or did the mole get it, too? *sly grin*

The links list will reappear when I sit my little rear end down long enough to set it up again (it disappeared when I changed templates)... meaning, don't hold your breath as long as the weather stays nice!
