Thanks for the tips, ladies! I spent a few hours yesterday and gave them all food, bone meal, then put 2 large bales of peat moss all over the flower beds.  Then added Preen (first time using it, hope i didn't kill my garden).  My flower beds will always be full of weeds, because about 4 years ago we got a semi-truck worth of dirt and i built up the level of soil when I did all the landscaping with bricks.  that entire project was almost the death of me, literally!:cool:  Since the dirt came from a place that sells soil to contractors, of course it's full of who knows what.  So hoping Preen will help.

Will do manure today and then will use that black plastic/paper weed block under mulch-good idea?  I used to do papers which worked great, but i don't do couponing anymore, so no steady supply of sunday paper ;)

Ok, now.... will prune the heck out of my roses.  Totally fine with making it a nice large bush.  How high would you say should I make it? i was thinking 2/3 of the height of the porch? maybe shorter, depending on how things look once i get chopping :) Thoughts? Ideas?
