Someone here ask if bulbs would come through wood shavings used as mulch. The answer is yes, my crocus in this one area are coming through proudly. We used the wood shavings only along a thin grassy area along side the drive , a pain to mow, and no issues for the crocus. will try to get pics later.

You're lucky to get blooms on your oakleaf hydrangea. The deer in my area love to chew on the stems in the winter so they never bloom

we have some deer that roam through our woods below. but probably because too many houses about have dogs that keeps them just passing through.

April 1, 2021 walk about. We have always struggled with grass to grow well, tried all sorts of seeds etc. But enjoy the video.

Wonderful walk through your garden Esther. I love the little seat on wheels. Perfect for weeding. Is it your invention or is it available to purchase.

not my invention, not sure how we got it either. I think my husband picked it up at a house auction, the center nut and bolt thing needed to be replaced so he fixed it. but yes its great for weeding. I sometime use it to wheel something heavy from point A to point B.
