Filled the garden and planted some new raspberry and blackberry bushes down in the ditch. A couple years back they were spreading everywhere so I dug them all up, split and replanted about a dozen stalks. They put out a few berries, but never recovered and finally died last year. Figure if I plant em on the banks of the ditch they can spread wherever they like. If they start going into the lawn, they get mowed, but got tons of room to grow along the ditch.
Tried to haul a trailer fill of chicken bedding from the coop out to the compost pile but got REALLY stuck in the mud. Had to ditch the trailer where it sank, and winched the tractor out of the swamp. Leaves were floating over standing water and swamp muck. Went in over the top of the front tires and the mower deck.
I'm sick of the mud season. Bring on summer, and a dry one at that.
Picked up 13 Vinca plants, 6 mums, and two Asian Lilly plants (each with about 6-8 buds ready to bloom.)
$21 for everything !I LOVE the "day after" Mother's Day sales.
