Hello all- just thought I would pop in and say howdy and that I am not ignoring you. Had a whopper of a sinus issues for a while, and then this was my view for the last two days:
I had several unrelated thoughts, one of which is we have not had a random Artists in Our Midst post in a long while. I think I might do one in a day or two- nothing official or planned, just a thread. The reason I thought about this was because I got a package from commenter Satby, whose soap and lotion I use almost exclusively, and this time she shipped some bulbs that she had dug up and while we were talking about my order, asked if I wanted some. Of course I said yes, so I am going to be planting those some time today.
That got me to thinking- how cool would it be if I had a whole section of my yard just dedicated to bulbs and the like from readers? At any rate, if you are digging up some bulbs and don’t want them, reach out to me and I will paypal you to ship them, and then maybe next year we could have a nice little flower display of everyone’s contribution. Or not.
I have to get back to work but I will shout at y’all tonight. There’s a lot going on.

@JC “There’s a lot going on.”
I’ll say. Not least is, via Rolling Stone, that Sam Alito got caught on an open mic (the reporter used her real name and no skulduggery other than using the hidden recorder), letting his right wing non-neutrality fly — like a flag, perhaps?!
“I don’t know. I mean, there can be a way of working — a way of living together peacefully, but it’s difficult, you know, because there are differences on fundamental things that really can’t be compromised. They really can’t be compromised. So it’s not like you are going to split the difference,” Alito said.
Yeah, his way of living together (italics above are RS’s) is with liberals capitulating and tolerating being a disempowered 2nd class citizenry.

How’d you wind up being groundskeeper for the local futbol pitch?
I have no bulbs in my container garden. I do have strawberries, but they take over anyplace they’re planted because they propagate like crazy. Even across pots. It’s uncanny. I had a big die-off over the last year, though (I suspect, through overcrowding as the pots got too full), and am now down to just six.

I gravely dislike Roberts, but contrast his careful answers to similar questions recorded that night. Roberts is still a f–k for what he’s doing to voting rights, Dobbs, etc. But Alito is just way out there saying “We get to set the rules because we’re conservative, not because we’re actually interpreting the constitution or settled law.” He’s an asshole. With far too much power.

Get deep into Thomas’ effective bribery. He wanted to quit. Right wing funders swung into place to pay to keep him on the job. That’s corrupt. Period.
And Alito’s flag-flying, his unguarded comments, his speeches to RW groups, all of it needs to be stitched up in a compelling narrative and spoon fed to our somnolent press. And repeated. And repeated.

@Butch: Put different blooming phases in. Fall bulbs have early, middle, and late season blooming; spring bulbs bloom early-mid-late summer, or in the case of cannas all summer long once they start. I sent John some mid-season pink cupped daffodils and some hardy gladiola (mid summer bloom), but he passed on the cannas because you have to lift the bulbs. So I have two boxes of those to still plant. They grow more eyes every year. If anyone wants cannas, email me!

I had some white globe-type alliums that didn’t bloom this year. Digging down to the bulb, I discovered dozens of bulb babies, which had caused the lack of flower. Too crowded!
When did I plant those, anyway? Before I replant, or foist them on unsuspecting bloglords, I am wondering how often this particular variety reproduces? It was a lot of digging.

Not so much from conviction or personal views on the subject as from cold political calculation. So, more like some senior Republican politicians than like the MAGAts, who are true believers.

And the Alstromeria is too close to the house (neighbors, downtown, etc.) depending whether they are bred from runners or clumpers.

In my dry mostly unwatered yard in the land of short grass prairie (13” rain is a good year) the alliums are flourishing in heavy clay.

@Sure Lurkalot: Japanese beetles are a problem for a customer of mine because they chew up her roses. So, I hang 2 or 3 japanese beetle traps this time of year, maybe 70 feet from the roses.
The traps fill up with dead beetles, so they work to some extent, but I heard an experienced horticulturalist say the traps attract distant beetles so I’m not sure they do much except reassure my customer.
There are products that combine fertilizer with a systemic poison that is supposed to kill bugs that eat the plants. I bought some to apply to the roses, but then I read the warning pamphlet attached to the container. It had all kinds of warnings, and a notice to doctors to administer atropine to counter poisoning. That got my attention because atropine is used to counteract nerve gas exposure. Since the familily dog runs in the same space the roses are planted and the owners are terrified of her eating something poisonous, and that ruled out the systemic approach.
But I’ve applied organic rose sprays that seem to work. Japanese beetles here seem to come by Memorial Day and leave by July 4th, so 3 or 4 applications are sufficient
Gloria DryGarden
@Geminid: please say more about the organic rose sprays.
I’m tired of daily foraging w a bowl of soapy water. I have a beautiful red repeat blooming climbing rose, and if I could keep those shiny j beetles off it, I’d get to see it actually bloom on repeat.
thise systemic poisons frighten me, might kill bugs, and bees. There are already way less bugs than in previous years.
