So--what am I doing apres Swap? Glad you asked.....

I have been piddling around cleaning up the big raised bed before I plant something in there--
and mulching it after I do...
Decided I HATE Hardwood Mulch!!! Maybe I just got a bad batch--but it just have too many
big chunks and pieces of branches and chunks of palates in it. A bit rough for a vegetable bed...
Will get Pine Bark mulch instead--when I have used up the 5 bags of the hardwood ones.

I think once I decide to tackle all the containers--a lot of my purchased and acquired plants will disappear...
The annuals--to be planted in the beds, will have to wait a few more days....gotta weed first--
dig up a huge # of self-seeded Rose Campions. and a lot of weed-oxalis....
Also--do something with all the Daff foliage laying all over......hate this phase of spring...6 weeks!!!
There are a couple clumps that did not bloom too well--too crowded---need to dig those up sometime too.
But--now there are growing Lilies and other plants in the way.....bummer!

NO end to anything.....Lovely--isn't it?

such is the "love" of gardening....G.
