after the deluge of rain from april thru july the past few yrs followed by heatwaves and droughts in aug the sept gardens in new england are even more enjoyable then ever! crystal clear cool days to enjoy healthier roses; annuals singing: zinnias and cleomes and tall verbenas; rose of sharons, pee gee hydrangeas, grasses and butterflys in the background; tall helianthus, asters and dahlias; and nothing could be better than the anemonies just popping! buterflies, hummingbirds, and the largest praying mantis i have ever seen! maybe it will bring me good luck to keep the woodchucks away... has anyone ever used a set of windmills attatched by a underground pipe with marbles to scare the chucks away? looking for advice to keep them away - have tried everything?
