More Work In The Yard

It was a sunny warm day so right after work we went right outside to do yard work.   We got a number of projects off our list, but it was so wonderful.   We transplanted the mother of thyme to the back of the hillside and a patch of moss phlox as well.  That will leave the south west planter completely empty for next spring.  

We did weeding around the waterfall and put more rocks down.   Wayne also cut down the peonies. 

Fall in the Garden

I spent time trimming roses and doing some annual removal and some weeding.   The Livin Easy, the Julia Child and the JFK and still blooming.   Also there are lots of flowers in the Raspberry Surprise dianthus.   It was a gorgeous day yesterday and so wonderful to be out in the garden.

Putting the Garden To Bed

Wayne has cut off the cala lily and the hostas.   The weather is below freezing every night now although in the 50s  during the day.    We still need to seal the large stones on the waterfall, drain it and put the pump away.   All the garden is now dug up as well. 

Lawn

Monday night Wayne put the fall fertilizer on the lawn.  The patches he did at the first of September have done really well.   The ones in the back yard took right away.  The ones in the front he had to delay doing them, so the grass was quite yellow when he put it down, but it has turned green and blended right in.
