What are you doing this weekend in the garden? [View all]

Me, I spent yesterday morning finishing up container plantings. Today, I came out to find that squirrels or chipmunks have used the soil to bury things, digging up plants and making a mess. Oh, yeah!

Other than that, it rained this morning, so I went to the local ACE Hardware and took advantage of a number of super sales after rebate on lawn and garden products. Then, after the rain quit, I have gone out, weeded a couple of beds, and am now renovating an entire garden bed that has been an out-of-control mess for a few years. I have cut out or pulled weeds, volunteers, and spreaders. It is then going to get a fresh piece of landscape fabric and mulch. Eventually, I will fill it in with some new plantings, probably not until next weekend.
