I am fussing with moving volunteers when I should cut back some Daylilies. I have to figure out how I am going to protect a favorite corner near the front door stuffed with sedums, as well as many sedum/succulent planters I would like to protect and enjoy again next year. I have a huge clematis to tangle with and chop down. I have a fair number of Blue fescues that I will lop off near the soil line. There are weeds to tend as the vacant lot next to me is sort of the gift that keeps on giving. The few perennials I have left will get cut way back. Garden tools will have to be cleaned and put up for the winter. Working full time, makes me divide chores up in to two day frenzies so I just do as much as I can, and I don't let the weather keep me inside too much just yet. It is common to find us out until dusk has become night this time of year. I usually get to almost everything, but there are always a couple things left. I am not too bad at getting settled in for fall in the yard, my big down fall is knowing what to do first in the spring.
