Snow & the Seed Catalog
We're happy to not be in the SNOWMAGEDDONin London, Ontario which is reeling under a metre of snow that's fallen in the last day or so. While Hamilton and Stoney Creek had just a light dusting of flurries, here in Hagersville, we got about a couple of inches.
What should appear but the William Dam seed catalog.
Gardening can be a lot of fun, relaxation, - a fine hobby, but it can be a lot of work too.
Maybe we should cut back next year? But when you start looking at all the new varieties...
then well, maybe we could try growing some of those.
Ah the challenges of gardening- they always start with the seed catalog. Spring can't be that far away. . . .

Red Haven Peach Harvest
The Peaches were getting red. Better pick them before- they fall, or before the raccoons come and eat them like they did to the Apricots.
Pick most of them, left some of the smaller ones to get bigger -maybe.
Maybe this was just the year. or maybe the little bit of trimming last fall helped.
Cleanup
trimmed back the bottom of the mugho pine, thinned out branches and cut back the top.
Removed old Tamarix juniper right down to the roots that had been getting ratty looking.
Cut back right to the ground the mahonia.
Trimmed the wisteria to single stem with 3 branches. Cut it back hard.
Trimmed Viburnum - only a bit, but trimmed off dead branches
Removed some Devil's walking sticks
touched up the Trumpet vine
Now what to do with this area? Maybe add more pachysandra?
