View from the porch early this morning just before complete sunrise:
Well, thanks to herbicides and prednisone, I am slowly catching up on the yard and garden work and am feeling like I might be able to handle it once again. Let me tell you, it is a great feeling!
This morning I did some more trimming: This won't be appreciated by anyone but me!
This is the used to be driveway border.....slowly getting rid of maintenance but will leave the shrubs, pear tree and the rugosa rose, Blanc doublet de coubert which so far has resisted rose rosette disease and it very fragrant.
The area around the well house where the mower won't go:
and this is the Well House Bed:
I can mow most of this one now. I am leaving my oldest rose, a China rose 'Old Blush' which has persisted for many, many years, and a scraggly Mme. Plantier that I hope returns much better next year and a couple clumps of peonies.
Old Blush:
P.S. Negative of prednisone is I no longer need to sleep........................
