I was going to have a more restful day after all the gardening that I did yesterday , but one job had to be attended to and I really should have done it last month .
All through the cold Winter months , we enjoy the lovely red stems of the Dogwoods - Cornus alba siberica , but I like to cut them back fairly hard so that they will produce lots more straight shoots to enjoy next Winter .
I bundle these up for flower arranging .🌿 Ooh ! ..sweet little Primrose !
So with that little job done , and it is beginning to rain again , I'll wash my muddy boots in the puddle and call it a day .
I want to have a restful afternoon with my needle and thread .

We only have a couple of dogwoods a red stemmed and a yellow stemmed but the red ine isn't growing too well so I only had one tp cut back.
ReplyDeleteI only have 2 dogwood in my small garden they do add much needed colour in the winter months, I love to beat the rain with a few little jobs outside.
