Spring Cut Back

This past week I started the spring cut 

back, yep all the spring bloomers got

cut back to the ground to make way

for the summer blooms.  A couple

Clematis that got hit hard from the

heat also got cut back.  Besides once

the Irises were cut back it's was time

to treat them for the summer.  The only

ones you don't cut back are the 

rebloomers.  Time to shape the azaleas

and wisterias.  Within the next week it

will be time to cut back the peonies if

you don't want them to go to seed.  If you

want seeds, then let them do their thing.

Got the wisterias out front trimmed back

and found the one is starting to bloom 

again!   Strange weather do have an effect

on plants!!  I also noted lots of seedpods,

thank you Bees!!

With an empty yard bin it's time to cut

back the peonies, not saving seeds this

year.  Also with the up coming heat it's

best to cut them, which will allow them

to give back the to the roots. 

Up coming July,  some of you know we

cut back the Clematis after the 4th of July

so that in the fall we have bloomers.   I know 

that this weeks heat will do some of them 

in so enjoy them now.

We have also brought out some of the 

summer plants.
