Before carrying materials up, could be colored black and blue. When working with power tools and flammable substances, take extra care. Check that electric power tools have ground wires attached or are double insulated to avoid electric shock. Before carrying materials up, make sure you have a place to hook or rest them. Never overreach or stand on the top rung, or you could lose your balance. Speaking of heights, working on the roof of your home or cottage is anything but casual. If you do have to go upon the roof, be aware of your footing and wear appropriate shoes, ones that will help grip the surface.

A raised bed with a raised edgâ€" ing is ideal for good drainage. The edging will allow a screen to be placed over the area to shade it and keep the birds from eating the seeds. A week or two ago, I planted some peony seedlings that were quite large. A few days later, I found them torn out by birds seeking the seed. Sweet Williams; Canterbury bells hollyhocks, columbines, forgetâ€"meâ€"nots, and daisies may be sown now. Try malva, ‘Zebrina‘ or ‘Pink Princess‘. Most perennials may also be seeded such as shasta daisy, aquilegia, dictamus, hibiscus, coral bells, and rudbeckâ€" ia. As perennials in the garden ripen seed, these can be harvested and immediately sown in the bed. I noted that bergenia seed will be ripe in a few weeks. Fresh seed germinate rapidly and will usually produce large enough plants to live through the winter especially if protected by a mulch and plastic cover. The tulips, alliâ€" ums, bleeding heart, and other bulbs, and perennials that have finished flowering, may be dead headed if the seed is not wanted.‘ So far, the garden seems remarkably free of insects, although a very colorful snail with a distinct brown line on the shell has appeared for the first time. I found a few in the greenhouse and one on the driveway.
