Apparently it is pretty common at this time of year in mulched areas.Dorothy Bordershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12441731296027227394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275431955885463071.post-69113808779405372302012-05-04T09:50:24.952-05:002012-05-04T09:50:24.952-05:00Hi, My name is Annette Kovar and Brandon is my Be...Hi, My name is Annette Kovar and Brandon is my Best, son-in-law ever. He sent me this address and it is so great. We always have that mold, and I found that when I scraped it with a hoe, there was then a lot of fine white "dust" that blew absolutely everywhere. I guess that's how it spreads to other mulch covered areas. Sometimes that mold seems to simmer from the summer heat. I absolutely love your blog. I'm kinda new to blogs, facebook, etc. But my daughter, Kim & Brandon, have helped me along with the facebook thing and Kim had to explain to me, only yesterday what a blog is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275431955885463071.post-967004690655996212012-05-01T22:00:36.439-05:002012-05-01T22:00:36.439-05:00Don't you just love 'Caldwell,' Brando...Don't you just love 'Caldwell,' Brandon?

I'm partial to yellow roses anyway, but this one has just a touch of orange or salmon. Some of the blossoms show this more than others. The one pictured here has just the faintest bit of salmon.Dorothy Bordershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12441731296027227394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275431955885463071.post-62394711664863666952012-05-01T16:40:08.209-05:002012-05-01T16:40:08.209-05:00Beautiful!
