Had a great Gardening Day, yesterday! It was so nice out - today is breezy, but still sunny.
Uncovered the strawberries and uncovered, fluffed the straw and then recovered the tulips and daffs that are coming up.
Cleaned out the last 3 beds that I didn’t get to last fall. I always do that because it’s actually such a JOY to be out in the garden doing something productive when we get an unexpectedly wonderful day. :)
Accidentally pulled up some strawberry plants, so I potted those and will share them with neighbors that need some, or use them in hanging baskets and porch pots.
Took the pallets that were covering some of the beds (puppy proofing from last fall when Shasta and Fremont could still get through the fencing) and put them where they belong. They were really heavy pallets, so if you were a little bird, you would’ve enjoyed watching me struggle with that! I ‘rolled’ them from end to end, and that worked well! (Wore gloves; no slivers!)
Potted up more dahlias and started on picking up fallen branches and sticks in the yard, but there’s more of that to do today, and of course the current crop of puppies is more than HAPPY to help hauling sticks around. *Rolleyes*
Another week of wet and ‘yucky’ ahead, but these past two days have energized me. :)
Thanks for sharing your very productive day! Nice day here, if a bit on the cool side - currently 49 & partly cloudy. When the sun does shine through, it’s really a mood lifter! :-)
I picked up 2 big plastic bins of sticks from the yard but I used one of those pistol grip grabbers so I did not have to bend over. I dislike raking so this worked out good. Also my jiffy pellets broccoli already up and ready for some garden soil so I did that. We have bought so many starter plants over the years and I saved them all.
