A Weekend of Gardening: Saturday


Holy crud, I did a lot of work in the yard this weekend!

Front Yard and Garden


  • Mowed the yard
  • Hoed and weeded the front garden bed
  • Planted the Fernleaf Lavender in the front bed, that's been in a pot on the porch for weeks
  • Found a wee elm tree in the front bed!  Hooray for volunteer trees! 
  • Cut down a big, overgrown Gorizia Rosemary in the front yard that was in. The. Way.  In the process, I discovered SIX clones that had layered themselves off the main plant!  I moved one to the back yard, and heeled in the other five to give to friends.  


This was basically a giant Yarrow patch before.  
Fernleaf Lavender (Lavandula multifida)

The first roses and buds of the year. These start out yellow, then ripen to a pretty pale cream. 

Goodbye, Rosemary.  

Rosemary clones heeled in to open space in the front bed, awaiting pickup. 


More tomorrow!
