Well, at long last, it seems that Spring is really here to stay. It was a bit touch and go for a while, we’ve still been having a dusting of frost, but overall, it’s definitely Spring. The lemon verbena is in a snit. It didn’t drop it’s leaves last year,and it’s been through several frosts over the winter… It looks like the “rangy” plant they describe it as in the Sunset Western Garden Book. Rangy, indeed, scraggly too.
It was a lifting and pruning blow-out here in the garden this last weekend. You’d have thought the end was near, but it was the coming of the biannual scourge of voters everywhere which spurred me to get ‘er done: le civic duty du jury. Glad that’s dealt with, now back to the garden… I hope!
