GARDEN UPDATE
Nice, warm and sunny but, whoo-boy! windy! Today I planted mums, ivy, snapdragons, pansies, tarragon and sage. I planted them in brightly colored containers and lined the walkway up to gazebo with them. Sure love those bright smiley faces.
BANANAFANAFOFANA
Is your rose bush struggling? Ya gotta BANANAFANAFOFANA-it.
Here's the recipe: Take one scoop of coffee grounds (Starbucks gives them away for free) and mash it together with seven chopped up bananas, peels and all, in any stage of ripeness.
Dig a hole 8-9 inches deep just outside where you imagine the roots to be. Take a shovel of BANANAFANAFOFANA, plop it into the ground and cover it up.
Remember our learning about those wonderful minerals that all plants crave? This will give your rose high-release potassium, phosphorus, magnesium and copper that it will immediately respond to. It composts under the ground, releasing nitrogen throughout the year. And, the good thing is, you covered it over so no critters, because you have taken away the scent.

Why do bananas wear suntan lotion?
Because they peel!
Mother Banana: Why didn't you go to school today?
Little Banana: Because I didn't peel well
What should you do if you see a blue banana?
Try to cheer it up!
Why is a banana peel on the sidewalk like music?
Because if you don't C sharp you'll B flat
Why are bananas never lonely?
Because they hang around in bunches
Man#1: What did the banana say to the elephant?
Man#2: I don't know
Man #1: Nothing. Bananas can't talk.
