Yesterday, between the raindrops, I mowed my back yard. That clover grows thick! And I used the trimmings to mulch around one of the heather plants and the edge of the iris bed. I'm trying to enlarge it slightly. Then I trimmed the holly bush out front. It was looking great, but it was attacking anyone who ventured near the mailbox. Mostly new growth had to come off. And I cleaned up some of the downed daffodil leaves and weeds in the front bed.
I also planted a large pot with petunia seedlings. My lantana is starting to bloom, finally.
And it turns out that I had not one, but two flower stalks on my amarylis. Unfortunately, I discovered this because one of the storms last night broke it off. Boooo! But, the one that survived is going to bloom in the next couple of days. Yea!
About Me
- millionbells
- I'm just shy violet. But I love gardening and butterflies, and I want to keep a record of what I do to my garden. So, I might as well share a little. Canoeing is fun too. I have what you might call a little peony fixation, too.
