Living on the Verge

At Lowes, where we practically live, they were trying to hire me over in the garden section, but I politely declined.  I have too much gardening to do at home, now that I have time to do it!  I think employees may be scarce because of  corona virus fears.

I’m about halfway done mulching E’s tree garden.  Here’s a before and after.  Once it’s fully amended, I’ll start planting perennial flowers and woodland plants in it.

Poor Misu knows I’m outside without her, which is sad, but necessary.  We try to make up for it with extra affection and treats.  Meanwhile, E has been systematically rebuilding the bathroom, so Misu always has company.

Flowering “weeds” are invading the so-called lawn, but that’s fine with me.  It’s like flowery icing on a cake, and attracts pollinators.

This is my favorite time of year, with trees and plants just on the verge.  Here’s a dogwood silhouette.
