The Garden Peon

[bloodsong1]

Actually spent ten minutes in the front yard clearing out the dead plants before her fingers declared 55 degrees as Too Cold and her Renaud's triggered. I'll be going back out in twenty minutes or so and doing it again. And again. Until I've got as much cleared out as I can with frozen Earth and then I will gather dead leaves from the driveway for mulch/cover and dump them on. Next month the free mulch should be available from DOT and I can really load up the bed. The back garden is the food production section, I'm leaving that alone until April/May. I think I'll try to get another bed going in the main part of the yard. There's a lot of flagstones and various bits of stone and brick I can use to kill the grass.
