Iggy likes to refer to our garden as his garden, even though I planted it. Maybe that means he’s proud of it or he likes how it looks.
Today Iggy shoveled compost out of our bin, into the wheelbarrow, and around the hostas. This will help his garden to grow stronger.
He also shlepped me out to the garden center, where I bought a couple flats of impatiens, a replacement sweet autumn clematis, epimediums, hellebores, and a couple of plants for my containers. Plus ten bags of mulch that’ll eventually go in our front garden.
I enjoyed working in Iggy’s garden today.
My gardens are weedy and out of control. I need to spend time out there. Instead of growing depressed when I see all the work that needs to be done.
