Garden Work

Emma and Biscuit joined me for an afternoon of gardening today. While Emma weeded, I applied 200 lbs of dolomite to the various beds, deadheaded, and staked some of the flowers. Here's Emma weeding below:

And Biscuit standing guard or something...

When I threw down lime on the area where the house used to be, a bunch of these tiny frogs started jumping around. I think they are pickerel frogs that just morphed from tadpoles in the vernal pool below the garden. I also saw some more red eft newts.

Emma took a break on the rock garden.

We should get a lot more blooms next year.
