Peony & Ants......

Sun at last!

Have been waiting for that sun to come, so that I could enjoy my self at the porch,

Here late afternoon in a chair placed next to my herbs.

Aaaah that smell is wonderfull- I can reach out and touch the leaves with my fingers and get the most wonderful aroma.

I dont have Lilacs in my garden, but the city has alot of treas among the bycycle path, so I stopped on my way home from work and picked a hugh bunch of Lilacs to put in vases at home.

Look how gorgeous they are, and the aroma is early summer smell.

But what is this?

Enjoying my wine I took a closer look at my peony , to check out the many buds that has showed .

And what did I discover? Ugly ants all over them!!!Many questions popped in to my head.

Are ant bad for my peony??

Can they do any damage on the flowers?

I dont want ants crawling all over my peonys!!!

What should I do??? I have ants in my kithcen as well.

Got to get some ant poison on monday!!!

then I remembered soap water is a good way to get rid of lice on leaves, so I mixed up som good soap ( with lemon sent :-) with warm water and sprayed it on.

Now an hour later they are all dead he.he.he....

Well they should know better than crawling on my plants.

A bread came out of the stove as well- it is good with a working at home saturday.

I like that.

Here`s a close up of the Lilacs

I prefer the white and the dark purple best-

Enjoy your saturday and sunday.

What are you doing on a saturday / sunday?

I plan to rearrange my closet tomorrow- cant find a dam thing in there and my summer clothes are in there somewhere :-) I know.

I have some paper work to do as well and I will be knitting .

I am almost there with Mara and a few rows will do the thing.

Will close it tomorrow.
