Jeanne,
I cut mine back in August. Most have grown bac healthy new foliage and that I will leave over winter.

Cindy,
Twice I've done the Arbor trees and not a one survived.

Ginny,
That is hilarious!! Bless his heart tho.

Susan,
Never agaain will I do major clean-up in spring, lol! The stems are soft and don't cut well. It's ahuge mess and I have other things that need doing.

Mac,
Nice looking garden! That is a thck layer of chips!

Jim,
Use the swamp to your advantage and fill it with cardinal flowers!

It was nice yesterday so I weeded. The ground is wet and I still had to take the Hori knife out to dig things out. All the beds need weeding, but I started in the rose bed. I dug out plants that have sowed with wild abandon. I made some empty spots. I've got everything else cut back now.
