jennlkAnd cold. Brr. Weather peeps say we'll get to 50F today. At 1130, it's still not 45F, so I have my doubts. (as late as yesterday, they were saying we'd get to 60, but then the rain settled in.) Maybe if it stops raining it'll warm up. Rain gauge says we've gotten just over an inch of rain this week, and it's still falling. The wild weather fluctuations are making my back cranky - it was over 80F the first part of the week, damp Wednesday, nice yesterday, today is chilly and clammy.
I know what I'll be doing tomorrow after the rain clears out - weeding! I still hadn't finished the first pass of weeding on the E flower garden, so it's in desperate need of that. Now that the weeds will actually come out of the ground, it should be doable.
In this year's "wha?", both of the viburnum bushes planted behind the garage are dead. Brown sticky things. Only one branch even leafed out. I have no idea why. I'll probably go out with the lopping shears and cut off what I can, leaving the bigger branches for J and the chainsaw. The area might work for a patch of bleeding hearts, once the soil is amended. I do want viburnum in the yard somewhere, so I need to figure out I want to put them, and then figure out where to buy some, although I shouldn't plant until next spring.
