the neighboring trees to cover the whole
yard. Yesterday was a full day of cleanup
due to I will not leave this stuff all over the
yard. Why?? It brings in the ANTS! After
vacing up amost 7 buckets of this stuff from
the roof to the ground I then treated the whole
yard with ant bait. This is just the southwest
garden bed side and you sure don't want to
leave this in the veggie garden area.
Yep those are the new LeafGuard gutters that
they say you don't have to climb on the roof,
pure bullshit!! I even found ants up there due
to the crap sticks in the holes of the gutter. I
even found a maple seed that sprouted.
As you can see this stuff really takes a
tole on plants, our cardoon is always full
of it and the poor hostas are really going
down hill on the south bed.
This stuff even blew into the front yard
and as some of you know I just cleaned
this area up after the last wind. I also
have to clean up around the two
greenhouses before I can let Sable
out to her area. She gets sap in her paws
and it's heck to get that stuff cleaned up.
This stuff gets so thick it kills plants
so I've do this several times a week
until this stuff stops dropping. If you
see the photos of the hosta bed, you
will see the difference in the plants.
The south bed used to be lush and
the plants huge, they are slowly dying
even with me cleaning out the area.
We have to put lime out all the time
as the soil is so acidy. Who cares
we can't enjoy our yard? They sure
don't, so enjoy the vac sound as I keep
our yard nice. I have a hard time as
folks want to see the yard and ya know
they see the problems that these trees
create. It's like do you go out to eat at
a dinner that is dirty? Same with
gardens, it's not enjoyable to see an
unkept garden. But again all one
has to do is look at their yards and
know they sure don't get it.
Yes, the gardens are open......but
make an appointment, please! We
are still dealing with the mess.
Still doing the clean up! Ya think it's
done and the wind kicks up and trashes
the yard again.
