What is a weed? The dictionary says that a weed is “a wild (not deliberately cultivated) plant growing where it is not wanted”. At the Old Pond Garden and in fact, every garden, there are weeds and it’s a constant battle to keep them at bay which is why this task is never ending 😱 However, today we had a break from weeding and took over 100 cuttings from the penstemon plants ready to plant later in the spring.
There are so many knowledgable people here that being involved is not only helping but also an opportunity to learn about all things horticulture.
