Sunshine, Rhubarb, and Hummers

Just finished more than a week of sunshine ... hardly a cloud in the sky for 8 or 9 days. Now we are entering a stretch where we are supposed to have rain every day for 4 or 5 days. That's the way it goes. I got most of the roses cut away from the border near the garden; now I have to finish digging out the stumps. Transplanted one rhubarb plant last week. It may be sprouting in its new location in the garden. We're also mulching and giving more sun (see cutting the roses) to the existing rhubarb plants to see if they'll produce more. Plus, I may transplant the healthiest ones to the garden in the fall. We've had hummingbird feeders out since May 2, but so far no hummers. They're late!
