Tangled Branches: Cultivated
happenings in and around my zone 6b gardens in northern Virginia and in central Virginia
Monday, September 15, 2003
Weather: the day began dark gray overcast, but the sun is now out and it's a bit humid. We had gray skies and rain/drizzle every day from Friday til this afternoon. Expecting rain/thunderstorms later this afternoon. Watching Hurricane Isabel, but I still believe that if they are predicting it to come close to us then it probably will not.
Chores: pulled off the mature Eragrostis seedheads, only leaving a few thousand seeds behind to sprout next spring; pulled up the raggedy-looking Nicotiana in the planters on the front steps.
Wildlife: just saw a nice big tiger swallowtail butterfly on the Buddleja. Haven't seen a hummingbird for many days now, even though birders are reporting them in the area. Wish I would see some of the many warblers being reported.
