The forsythia hedge is coming along saving me from the next door neighbors. We have catnip from last year , looks like and couple lavender actually made it . The moon flowers aren’t coming back but I jave thousands of seeds .if any are good still there were some mold issues from the pods . It’s way too much work but I sure done cool things I dug out sll
Under the fence to stop weeds and I switched the lawn to clover /‘s included in front of the fence I tilled it all by hand with my pick axe . Pay no attention to my little visitor in the hole, it was inactive but since I saw it I’ve taken steps . They love to eat those little green blocks which decreases the surplus population.

Hard to believe these elegant perfumed beauties are considered weeds!

Well I’ve done more than I thought I would or I intended . The things I try to do have not gone very well however I’m realizing that if I just leave them alone and cut the weeds back, you know nobody’s really gonna notice but me. They’re gonna probably stay where the flowers and all the other stuff because I just didn’t do it this year. I kept a record of seeds though. I kept all the packages. And I bought a few plants. But I’m really trying to go for perennials everywhere. I don’t wanna deal with it and I don’t wanna water anything. I don’t mind doing a little bit. The hedges are killing me. I know why my wife likes them the way they are. It is cool and you can hide behind them on front porch is like hidden now behind a beautiful gigantic hedge, but you have to trim it and it’s way harder than I thought it was gonna be to try and keep up with that. The robin is building a nest there for the second round of eggs. It’s right outside the front door and my wife sleeps right there she’s not going to be happy about the red Red Robin belting out his song before sunrise. I did end up throwing all my moonflower seeds on “the dune” down the beach I hope lots of them grow . I’m still shocked I found them there . Right at the high water mark in fact the plant where I first got the seeds was washed away by the flood. It must’ve been there a couple months at least because it had seeded . There are a few in the yard in spite of my efforts to keep them from seeding . They’ll probably always grow around the neighborhood now .
