Dorothy (Meadows)

My second favorite container is the clear deep boxes that spinach/salad mixes come in and cookies from BJ's wholesale USE to come in. On my last trip I saw that BJ's had switched to a truly inferior container that won't work well for WSing (hard to explain, but it's cut on a slant now, making one end not deep enough for promix.)The nerve!!!!

When your walking the dog...look for seed heads too! they almost alwasy need adoption and are going to waste in gardens where no one will harvest them.

But . . . um, I took my garbage cart out to the alley, and these bags have been sitting across the alley for ages, no stickers on them, no free period yet, city won't take them.

Sooooooo, I decide to see what they've got over there, it's a rental for some time now, and the beautiful peony is getting more and more crowded with weeds. Daggone, I won't snitch the peony but will weed around it so it will bloom next spring, a really beautiful one.

Well, I peeked in the kraft bags and found two full of nice pin oak leaves. I lost my tree and was planning to get some from the alley later and maybe the neighbor across the way, but have a good start now. Two bags had a bunch of junk mixed in with the leaves so I left them.

Got the 1st dumped in my little compost bin, picked up the second and the bottom fell out. So I scooped up what I could and kept any more from scattering until I stuck it in one of those Walmart tubs I just got emptied last week. It looks so much better out there. I had tons of containers from two years ago, finally got it all cleaned up. Now I'm just about ready to plant what's left.
