Dr. Dan’s Garden Tips
I’m still making my way around the garden, trying to clean out our flower planters and add leaf mulch. Today I didn’t get out there until early afternoon. I managed to prune/cut back two 8 foot planters before it started to sprinkle hard enough I called it quits.
My husband and I started our ‘getting ready for winter’ list, too – which today consisted of turning off the irrigation system to the planters, draining the irrigation system, and bringing out the automatic and propane heaters in the well house. I won’t turn off the irrigation system to the vegetable garden until it looks like we might get a freeze.
It got quite bit cooler today, with a high of 62 degrees F., so it was a glorious day to be out working in the yard without having to wear a sweat band!
It’s bowling with friends for us tonight. I hope you’ve had a good day, too. :0)
