A beautiful June day in the yard.

I have been digging crab grass out of my front flower bed for days now and I can see where that weed got its name. I can get very crabby after several hours of pulling the darn things. I am amazed at their roots, they are so sharp they can bore right through other root plants and choke good plants out. I have salvaged a lot of my perennial plants that Maddy and I planted over the years and I have been able to share them with friends and co-workers. I found plants in this bed that were almost dead thanks to this invasive, hard to kill weed. I plan to win this battle!
