>>Congratulations on all the walking and on planting bulbs, too!<<
It's a favorite fall activity.
>> I did NOT get to any garden stuff this weekend, and I'm going to regret it when the weather turns cold and miserable. But I *did* get in a lot of walking both days!<<
Walking is good. Maybe you can get to the garden later. I'm behind on mine due to chaotic and obnoxious weather. It was freaking 90s or upper 80s most of September. >_<
>>Good luck with getting to your trimming, etc., and for any other garden endeavors you're undertaking this week.<<
Yesterday I cleared the daffodil bed and spread two bags of composted manure there. Today I cleared the tulip bed (which is much bigger) and spread three bags on there. It's not quite finished, but one more bag should do it.
I'm basically into the fall cleanup phase, getting things ready for winter. We were supposed to have tree guys out to do a bunch of work, but their chipper broke. I really need that car-sized pile of shredded tree bits so I can spread it around the base of trees and over some of the flowerbeds. I ran out a couple years ago and buying by the bag is expensive which limits use, which allows weeds to grow, which makes more work... *sigh* But mulching is a job I can do on non-inclement days in winter.
