Weeding the lupines continues


I carried out a bag of weeds from around the lupine near dusk.

I'll try to get back over the weekend

and do a more extensive job. It seems

some of my earlier work is holding,

but it's the summer growing season

for weeds, so some regrowth is inevitable.

I appear to be making progress.


It looks better now.
The purpose of the weeding was to reduce the danger of fungus and to reduce competition for water and soil nutrients. It will be an ongoing job.
