Garden Clean Up

Yesterday I did some more work in the gardens. I cleaned up the stalks from the driveway garden. Doesn't have any blooms yet, but it sure looks nicer than it did

I had actually cleaned up all the peony/iris/day lily stalks and stuff the other day in the roadside garden. Didn't take a full picture, but this is one picture I did take that gives an idea as to how it looked

grabbed nineteen 3cu/ft bags of natural cedar mulch yesterday (I had 1.5 bags left from last year). Before and after of the roadside garden (took 5 bags of mulch)

I had also cleaned up the south garden the other day. Before and after 8 bags of mulch were laid

The rest of the bags of mulch went into the shrub garden on the north side (yes, I need to do some work on the landscape timbers that border it)

I'm always amazed at how much nicer everything looks with fresh mulch

It does look better when mulch is freshly applied to a garden, but it takes a large number of bags. I’ve not been able to find good mulch since 2022, so have skipped buying/applying any. Happy that Vermont supplies your cedar. Your gardens are looking great!
