What to dig out and toss....What to dig up and transplant...What grew too tall in your borders and too short in the backs of your beds? What happened to my 3 Crocosmias? Where are they??? I need to mark where all my Glads were before all of the dying foliage disappears.. Do I want them again in my small, round bed where they grew 4' tall? Should the Lilies be dig up and divided? or--should they go one more summer? Did something outgrow it's boundaries and now I am sorry I planted it? Definitely--some of the Coleus and melampodiums fit in that category. .. Share your frustrations, your mistakes and your good intentions that backfired. With this great cooler weather--now is the time to take stock of what to do differently next year. I am headed out, shovel in hand and digging up a few things... My Tiger Lilies have waned and are no longer what they could be. Dig them up and divide seems on the agenda today. Also a good way, while I am at it, to amend the soil with all that great compost Sally and I dug out of my SEM (Stupid Earth Machine). What's would you want to change next year? Me? This bed for sure! Gita |
