Little Owl Looking up over His Shoulder

It’s amazing how they can turn their head so far around on their body!

Yesterday, I did manage to get 1,000 words done, and I cut back on some crepe myrtle branches. Their trunks are so beautiful, but then they shoot up all kinds of new shoots, some that crisscross and wear on other branches, and this is the time to cut them back before the crepe myrtles leaf out and flower. I have a ton of them since they have volunteered in places where I didn’t plant them. Which is mostly everywhere. I only planted 5. The others have come from birds, I think, because they are different-colored flowers from the 5 that I planted.

They are beautiful, but I just have to keep after them a bit so they stay that way. They say to let them have trunks in a multiple of 3 or 5 or 7, that they’re more aesthetically pleasing to the eye that way.

I’m also cutting back Esperanza that died during the frost, but is coming back at the roots, and other flowering plants like that. Some made it through the frost, others didn’t, but they’re all coming back from the roots.

I’m off to write before I don’t have the chance to.

Have a fun-filled day!

  1. Hi Terry
    I have a California lilac tree that I have to cut suckers out twice a year.
    If it died this winter from all my trimming last fall no great loss.
    I just might cut it down this year because those suckers are a real headache for me.
    Just got back from having my blood work done.
    Hopefully everything is A okay.
    Well I have to go now as I am very hungry for breakfast.

    • Oh, Sheila Claire, I hope your blood work is great, and I don’t blame you on the lilac tree!!! I want a maintenance free garden. lol
