gardening aftermath

I pruned our wisteria this past weekend [after blooming].

I should have taken a before and after picture. But, the camera was in the house and I didn’t think of it earlier! [duh?]

It’s practically a yearly chore now… wild and crazy growth that shades most of the under-plantings. It engulfs the pergola!!! BTW, the goats like to eat it!

I only fell off my stool once…and my poor arms are soooooo tired from working overhead!! I’d like to take a buzz-saw and chop about a foot or two off the TOP!! BZZZZZZZZ!!!!

Let there be light!!! Don’t worry all my gardening fans, it will re-grow rapidly and my hack-job won’t look so bad! 🙂

Phew!! Cross that chore off the to-do list!!!
