Mid November Landscape Notes

  1. had a late frost this year
  2. finding non-planted areas for daffodils will be a big challenge next year
  3. still need to transplant crocus from cut flower bed
  4. happy with number/variety of bearded iris plants
  5. trying to keep-up with year-round anti-weed campaign
  6. forsythia bed is still a few years away from maturity
  7. need to stake wayward crepe myrtle branches instead of pruning them off (rock island bed)
  8. have a good start of ajuga going in the south side bed
  9. need to trellis the vine in the farm bed
  10. will consider planting butterfly bushes in the cut flower bed, and a natchez-variety crepe myrtle in the back corner bed
