We've cut a swathe through Fort Forsythia, we've cleaned up the front flower bed and planted seeds, cleaned up the staging area and now as the azaleas have performed we will start pruning....we have 5-6 weeks to complete the pruning. Some other surprises......garden areas for gourds.
Come with pruning tools, gloves, a rake, gloves and water. Hope to see you there |
