I was given an overgrown flat of Dianthus ‘Telstar Mix’ and thought it would cover the ground while I decided on more permanent plantings. So I cleaned the weeds out of this eastern half of the bed, added more municipal compost and tucked them in. At this point I was battling the bindweed by snipping off the vines at ground level. You can see remnants of the dead vines in the chicken wire.
In its own way, frost may be one of the most beautiful things to happen in your garden all year . . . Don’t miss it. Like all true beauty, it is fleeting. It will grace your garden for but a short while this morning. . . . For this moment, embrace frost as the beautiful gift that it is.
