Today was a full day of gardening.
The rain gardens at the historic mansion are coming alive! The main work so far has been clean-up. There are a plethora of black capped raspberry vines, not part of the original plantings. The birds must have “gifted” them. They were scattered throughout both rain gardens. Last week and today the primary job was to cut them back to a contained area.
Other jobs today were putting mulch around transplanted shrubs, and cutting back ornamental grass.
At the historic cemetery, this week’s work was minimal – digging out a 2 year old clematis volunteer from my garden and planting it at the fence garden. Daily watering checks are showing it is doing well.
Back at the townhouse, planting our veggie garden – two jalapeno plants – lol – was job #1.
Then trimming the weigela, and trimming the ninebarks.
Time to relax, eat dinner, and watch a movie.
