I finished the benches. I needed to cut the old bolts with a cordless saber saw to get the rotting old wood off the metal frames. The frames are in decent shape. I’ll need to paint them when they dry out after today’s rain.
Yesterday I went back to pruning shrubs around the house which meant a trip to the dump with a load of cuttings, and a chance to bring back more top soil to start a new flower bed.
New blooms: grape hyacinth.
Anthurium and Amaryllis from the Hotel Eden, Rome. The next day they replaced these with white ones.
Garden in Assisi, grapes, olives, fruit trees and, of course, lots of birds.

Some of the pieces that you prune off shrubs might be planted. Lat year I took the Hydrangea clippings and shoved them into a large pot with potting soil. I kept the pot really wet all summer and this spring the green shoots are forming at the base of the clippings. I did this with Montauk Daisies and Shastas too.
