Yard Cleanup

Cleaned up the yard some more today. Put the plants in the pots and smaller troughs to bed for the winter.




Not sure what to do about the larger troughs I carved out of feather stone, maybe they are large enough to overwinter successfully.

Something not to do.
Don't let drainage holes get clogged, water doesn't drain.
 Then when the water freezes, the structural integrity of the pot breaks down.
This nice pot just showed up one day this summer in the shape you see it here, I guess someone thought it was trash. It is a very nice pot. It is a pleasant shade of terra cotta (Crayola has a shade called Terra Cotta, but no shade called Panna Cotta). Why is the pot there? Why a pot with no plant? That's a silly question, that is like asking why have a bench you never sit on?
Exactly, why have a bench you never sit on.
