If you are scratching your heads over ideas for Mother's Day/Father's Day gifts for your parental units, be advised that we are anxious to do some landscaping around the cabin. I think your father would be very pleased to get another flowering crabapple tree, like the one you gave him several years ago and which is now flourishing in our front yard. As for me, I would appreciate some hardy shrub roses in deep pink or burgundy shades. Make sure they are hardy shrub roses---I have a few from last year that are doing very well in the flower beds in front of the house. We also plan to plant myrtle on the slope in front of the cabin, and I could use one or two "Petit Bleu" for the border in front of the house. That is a small variety of spirea, also known as Blue Mist spirea, that is available at The Greenhouse Shoppe in Wooster.
And if you are short of cash, a couple hours of free labor in the yard would also be appreciated.
In case you were thinking of getting us anything. Not that I am asking. Just being helpful :)
