This patch of brown and raggy earth is where the magic happens soon. But I thought it beneficial to remind everyone of the “before”…before Spring clean up and growth. Not a pretty picture. Much of Spring Gardening is actually very unromantic chores, best achieved by a hedge clippers and a rake than by delicate pruners. Lots of signs of growth already, but other plants can’t be rushed just yet. So we’ll give everything a haircut, air it out, clean it up as best we can without disturbing too much, and then a couple months later, we post the “after” photo, and it is wonderfful.
