Prepping the vegetable garden (which now, thanks to my daughter, has old the landscape timbers from the rose garden outlining the vegetable beds)...out come the weeds and the grass, in goes the Miracle-Gro garden soil, with seeds soon to follow.
Prepping the rose garden...clipping back the winter damage, getting rid of the weeds, adding in some fertilizer.
The never-off-my-to-do-list wildflower bed...dig out the daisies that have taken over, get those weeds out, clip out the old dead stuff, put sand in the paths to cut down on the muddy walks.
Tulips, tulips, tulips. Those lovely tulips have sprouted grass all throughout them. Grass that is doggone hard to get up without disrupting the pretty flowers. Patience, patience. And time.
Actually, busy as a wasp seems the best word today.
Eeww get rid of that wasp hive ASAP! Wasps decided to build a nest inside the hood exhaust pipe from the stove in our summer place! What a nightmare!!!!
ReplyDeleteI so dislike wasps (and am allergic) so hubby takes care of those nests for me.
DeleteIn the pipe from the stove? Yuck!!
Doesn't it feel great to be outside and get lots of yardwork done? That's what we have been doing this weekend since we finally have gotten some nice warm weather. Yesterday we mowed the lawn, trimmed all the bushes around the front lawn and trimmed the big hedge. Today I need to work on the flower beds up and down the driveway. - Lisa
