Gardening Diary – March 2, 2021

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.

Weeded around this plant and covered the center area with 2 bags of pine bark mini-nuggets mulch.
