Variegated English Ivy

 Put english Ivy variegated, Procumbens nana, cedar, euonymus, cedar, lavender in jars

Soaked one set in liquid rooting hormone for 2 -3 minutes


Jan 30, 2022

English ivy in non hormone jar had roots- in hormone jar the ivy has dried up

Perhaps too much hormone


Jan 31 put a new batvh of variegated english ivy from outside in jar with a small drop of liquid hormone added to water- used hard water.

Trim and to be pruned

Willows along side of cedars- have died- after last fall treatment
will need to be cut down to ground
Put dead morning glory vines here= maybe they can cover the stumps
Hetz junipers outside of pool fence- cutting them back severely
will allow more breeze in pool- less mosquitos
Phillip is doing some of the trimming
He also trimmed the pussy willows by the shed down 

Cleaned up a lot of the branches that broke in the storm and branches from the fruit tree pruning and dumped at back near the weeping willow and Kartiks bee boxes
