It is really remarkable what you can discover and reveal with a little exploratory spade work. In every case the primary culprit was liriope root masses.

The Snow Melt
The snow was beauty - all the more so because it did no damage. So instead of franticly cutting and cleaning as I did last year, we could simply wander around and enjoy. With all the precipitation we are having, we should have a floriferous spring! All the ferns are cut back and a few hellebores & crocus are blooming. Large, undulating flocks of songbirds are arcing through, surely a harbinger of spring! Hopefully an early one. Happy Lundi Gras.

Winter Wet
Not much gardening going on around here as the weather has remained cold and wet. I have begun, sporadically, the fern cutback and am about 150 gallons in.

Storm Debris
Still talking about last March's snow storm! Many of our crape myrtles were hit especially hard last year - looking like giant tan mushrooms after the snow and ice. I set aside many of the long limbs and they cluttered my tool shed for 10 months. Voila! Inspiration struck! Rinne needed a rail for her studio porch and here we are. One rail built, some clutter cleaned and debris used for a functional purpose.

Limb v. Truck(s)
Street trees have a hard life. Sandwiched betwixt curb and sidewalk. Under constant assault by drunken football fans, car doors, pet urine, and delivery trucks. But these crape myrtles seem to be able to with stand anything - and their limbs bear the scars.
The weatherman says that snow is on the way. Hopefully not a repeat of last year's storm!

Moore's Branch Beach
Moore's Branch gravel beach, down by the rock in our back yard. The branch flows down to the Oconee, which mates with the Ocmulgee to spawn the Altamaha which spills into the Atlantic or maybe flows on into the Sargasso Sea. So one distant day, this gravel, eroded to sand, will form the shifting beaches of the barrier islands down on the coast.
