turn it over!


If left untended, the garden would be awash in grasses (the crab-kind) and snow-on-the-mountain. There's only one thing that frustrates me more than this - those damned Japanese Beatles. Their infestation on the rose bushes is gross - GROSS! I'm tempted to turn the whole garden over. Mulch it over and plant boring, suburban shrubs. Like Bridal Veil or Verbenum.

School is soon to start and time is limited (and attention waning) for tending the garden. Tomorrow, I'll start the first of several "major chops". Though the rains have made for an over abundance of flowers, it will look more well tended and I won't have to suffer the scorn of neighbors.
