The word of the day was teamwork. All gardeners partnered up and took on a variety of tasks. Richard, Giovanni and Simon raked leaves in the back of the garden. Angus and Colby dug a big hole for three daisy plants. Lamont, Jessica, Carlo and Jahnelle removed rocks and leaves from between the beds and covered the area with mulch.
That was the good!
Squirrels love to kick their heels up in the mulch. I visited the garden three times today and it looked like a mulch fiesta!
That was the bad!
As for the UH-OH-----Don't swing your rake into a wire fence. It will get stuck and it will take someone big and strong to unstuck it! No names are mentioned here to protect those who claimed to be innocent!
Over the weekend, I purchased crocus bulbs and picked up daffodil bulbs from Union Square. The daffodil bulbs were free as part of an initiative to beautify NYC. This project is also a living memorial for 9/11. There will be 300 of them popping up in the Spring.
