weeds


I gave two plants to my front yard last week, plants that I had grown over the last year from clippings. I placed them in the midst of dried grasses and new weedy plants just starting up. I only thought for ½ second that I should weed first but, since I haven’t successfully weeded in many years, I went forward, dug a shallow hole and plopped them in, wishing them luck in their competition for space. If they do grow, they will be big and colorful and maybe scare the weeds away. I do water them faithfully every other day, to give them a fighting chance.
