And there was a way to get rid of them until the burn ban went into effect. Now I am piling them and trying to figure out how to get rid of them without breaking the ban.
After hiking and helping me with Burdock, raking leaves, cleaning up gardens, transplanting perennials and moving hostas...Charlie decides to nap on the Mulewings bench on the porch.
The bleeding hearts are emerging, along with the red sedum ....
And the green sedum!
The oregano is coming back too!
The Virgina Blue Bells are emerging!
Lil' Richard will be assuming his duties as trimmer and fertilizer along the fencelines and in different parts of the yard along with Sven as things green up.
The daffodils are about to burst forth with their yellows as the crocus flowers finish dazzling one area of the yard.

Today Charlie and I are taking a break and will go to Kickapoo Valley Reserve and hike one of our favorite routes to Black Hawk Rock.
Today will be the only sunny and nice day until the next cold front passes and sunshine returns on Tuesday.
Back to cold for this next week!
It will slow the plants from emerging, however, that will give me a bit more time for my war on Burdock.
Stay well and safe.
It is so nice to see all the new growth coming up. That is such a precious picture of Charlie.
ReplyDeleteThat crocus photo is lovely! Burdock...white vinegar worth atry if it is still in the ground...otherwise cover the pile with black plastic and let them cook and then you can burn later when the burn ban is off. :)
