Whilst cleaning the pool area yesterday, I’d realised the steps up to it had started to become overtaken by the beautiful, elegant blue irises that grow on either side, so I decided I needed to tidy them up.
Meanwhile Brian was going to cut the slope, as the grass had really grown since we did it about a week ago. However he does know to leave the meadow areas I’m cultivating.
For my job I started by just removing the long grass and weeds, and then started to remove some of the irises. They were so well rooted in though, I did need a helping hand. I was really pleased with how it was looking, and have replanted the irises we removed further down the slope. Hopefully they will take.
