Made a slight dent in my delivery of mulch. Heading into summer so need to get a wriggle on.

Nothing today, as it was a golf day. But it will be more leaf collection tomorrow and I'm going to thin out the two viburnums in the front garden. Each has a couple of very thick branches, surrounded by tall new thin ones.

I might re-pot a couple of the roses on the patio.

I planted three roses today. Not as easy as it sounds with a garden that sits on bedrock and tree roots running everywhere. But they're in and I'll look forward to seeing them grow come next Spring.

I've thinned out the viburnums in the front garden, one was "attacking," a rhodo next to it. In fight between them a viburnum will always win. As the rhodo was being pushed to one side, after removing a big old branch of the viburnum, I've wired some of the branches of the rhodo to the viburnum to get it to start straightening up. I'll shorten the wires every few months, but it'll take a few years to recover.

More leaf collecting, green bin is full..again!

Not much else to do in my gardens this year. The pumpkins I had on my porch started getting soft so I set them in the garden near a tree for squirrels and other mammals to eat.

We've been getting snow. It won't be too long before I can start spreading seed around. I've got four small gardens I need to seed. They were all added this year so there isn't much growing in them yet. I'll probably throw some seed in the main garden as well. I'll be waiting for the next significant snowfall to do that.
