The Dappled Willow at the right side of the back garden “exploded” in growth this past month! We decided to prune this plant since it was interfering with our access into the back garden and was hanging over into our neighbors’ yard.
While I was pruning the Dappled Willow, Sharon was digging up the Dock Weed [Rumex obtusifolia] from the right side of the garden near me.
After I finished pruning the Dappled Willow, Sharon and I pruned the Cardinal Red Twig Dogwood [Cornus sericea] that was next to the Dappled Willow that I was pruning.
We pruned a few branches off the Java Red Weigela [Weigela florida ‘Java Red’].
We then started to weed around the Hardy Bensonhurst Purple Fig Tree [Ficus carica] near the latter plants.
