don't skip quick weed pulls

Weeding doesn't have to be long and stressful. You can do it quickly as you walk by. Plus it gives you a chance to look at your garden and enjoy some fresh air.

I did this recently. I noticed the beautiful white morning glory flowers and photographed them before ruthlessly pulling the plan off my Skimmia. If you don't do it, it will just keep going. I know, the pulling doesn't eradicate it but it slows it down.

​

Another common enemy is crabgrass (Digitaria). It causes problems in lawns and it's especially ugly in planted beds. You can't let it go. Pull it nicely with roots and dispose of it.

​

Weeding can actually be fun. You can learn about common weeds and make your garden look better at the same time. Some weeds are fascinating. 

Again, if you're too busy to weed, give me a call or text. I would be happy to help.
