For the last day of preparing the straw bales, fertilized all the straw bales using Alaska Morbloom Fertilizer (0-10-10). On all but two of the straw bales, used 1 cup of this fertilizer in a gallon of water on 1 straw bale; on each of the last 2 straw bales, had available only 1/2 cup of this fertilizer in a gallon of water.

Went to the front yard to work on the Diane With Hazel [Hamamelis × intermedia ‘Diane’]. On March 18 of last year, remove part of a sucker of this plant. Unfortunately, the sucker was too close to rest of the plant to completely remove the sucker. As a result, there was a lot of growth from the sucker which is seen in the photo (left above) as the tall branches in the middle.
Removed these branches.
