This weekend I tried to get a week's worth of work out of Paul because he's leaving today to visit Erich and Bryan in Oregon. On Saturday he mowed and installed my really cool retractable clothesline which I hope to use today.
Yesterday, we sifted rocks that were inadvertently placed on the path between the northeast corner bed and the two perennial beds. We placed the rocks around the air conditioner on the north side of the house. After trimming and pulling some grass along the beds, I planted 8 blue star creeper plants (Isotoma fluviatilis) that will hopefully form a green mortar of sorts between the steps of the path. It is a foot friendly plant that will spread.
In other garden news, every strawberry that gets red usually get nibbled by a bird. I don't mind sharing a few, but it looks like we'll need to get some netting to keep the birds from snacking on them.
