It's not the most glamorous part of gardening, but this weekend I had to tend to some bushes that had gotten out of control. They were threatening both our house and our neighbor's driveway. We're lucky she hadn't called the law yet. There were weeds and vines growing up through all four of the bushes on this side of the house. I tried to get into them and cut the weeds off near the ground. I'm sure I'll have to have another go at these in a month or two and then again in the fall so that they will be nice and compact when they flower in the spring. I was tempted to get rid of them entirely and use this area for gardening until I saw their flowers this spring.
