Left home in nov. without doing a lick of cleanup, so came home a week ago to major mess. Garden was under snow until a week before I got home so most things flourishing. However, fancy gaillardias and coreopsis took a very big hit, oh well.
Cleanup and composting about half finished but we are at the beginning of ten days of major rain and snow that may end the drought.
Found this pic from last spring to make me stir my stumps.
I'm itching to get out there but wet heavy clay means I'd probably do more harm than good. Also, I often lose seedlings when I pull out adjacent weeds. So I will resist - I think.
Like your garden, Davids10. I managed to tidy the greenhouse. Planted some hostas out. Moved ornamental grass and some Lady's Mantle. Dug a raised vegetable bed and covered it up to warm up the soil. Made a trial pot with Lavender seeds. And then the rain arrived...

Nice to 'see' you again David. Wondered why you suddenly disappeared!
Hoping to get something done later if the ground thaws, but it's mainly clearing and tidying up a bit. Seed sowing soon for me too hollie
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

Good to see David is back, always like to see pics of his beautiful garden
My weather ap said it was going to be sunny today but I would describe it as a light hail somewhat thwarting my plans to potter.
Pulled up a few bittercress and filled a few potholes before retreating
Looks like another day of planning and browsing
Like the idea of the guerilla gardening Hollie Hock!!
Bought some Horseradish..well hubby did yesterday, so planted that. Planning to start in earnest next week-lots of tidying and planting to do!!
Very pretty garden Davids10. Has started tipping with rain here so pruning is now out.
