This ‘spring’ has been a roller coaster ride of weather. We’ve had everything from mid 90’s right to frost warnings. In addition we were in a moderate drought but after 22 days of rain, that has lifted.
The last 2 days have been beautiful I’m talking crazy beautiful, blue sky, breeze, mid 70’s perfect for getting work done.
Day one found me planting my plethora of plants that I had purchased at the plant sale and nursery trips. I had already spent a lot of time placing them and deciding where I wanted to plant them. I actually made note of how large things got and didn’t just plunk stuff down.
Day two I spent mulching and pulling that blasted stilt grass!
This is the ‘new’ portion of the woodland bed. I’ve made it all the way down to the pond path.
This is section behind the pond that is newly planted in, I can hardly believe I had enough plants to get all the way down here!
This is the side behind the gazebo, it was mulched and planted in as well. It looks so nice like this, weeded and mulched. I can’t wait to finish the mulching and start spreading all those woodchips on the paths!
Then I can move on to the next project, the bird feeder area and my new garden bed. Of course there is still weeding to do in the back corner, they say damp and rainy again next week, so weed when wet, dig when dry…ish…
