While Sharon was doing this, I started to clear the walkway between the bush bed and the bed next to the original bed. I pruned the growth of the Kaleidoscope Abelia, the Autumn Jazz Arrowwood Viburnum and the Cranberry Cotoneaster that was in this walkway.

Then I proceeded to remove the Pokeweeds [Phytolacca americana] which were in the bed next to the original bed.
