Survivors

The word for today was "hug." Never saw any of those, so I took a photo of my lilies of the valley, which is a bonus word this month. These are called survivors because my husband has mowed them and put out Round Up all along the foundation of the house. These survived.

Oh no! They are a hardy plant, but to survive Round Up! Wow. Nice comp and POV!

[Rick Schies]

I do believe they will be doing well

[Ann T.]

Can't wait to see the blooms.

[Peter Grave]

You should put a sign on them Kathy.I get into trouble for doing the same thing and mowing anything that i think is a weed.Don,t use roundup though,they are finding out that its probably carcogenic and its in nearly everything we consume .( www.greeninfo)

Glad they survived the onslaught

[Mickey Anderson]

Great survivors...and yes round up is a no no here...lol except on my driveway!

[Margaret Brown]

Great that they survived they will soon be filling the air with wonderful heady perfume:))

[Pyrrhula]

Have them blooming now in our garden. Great shot.

@susanalena @digitalrn @aat3877 @peterlgrave @tosee @brillomick @craftymeg @pyrrhula Thank you everyone for the lovely comments. I know Round Up is not very ecological, but sometimes, there's no other way besides hiring a gardner and "Thor" is not available. Oh wait, is he the pool guy?

[Peter Grave]

Try boiling water Kathy.

@peterlgrave Thanks. I'll try to be more mindful.
