Today we started our big winter cleanup in the bottom of the garden, raking up all the autumn leaves, cutting back hellebores and a general tidy up. We discovered that hidden under allthe leaves grass grub had attacked the lawn. This is where the bugs eat the roots off the grass and the lawn dies. So, after I finished mowing the lawn, Robert treated it with “prills”. Prills are a granular treatment that need to be watered in, so on went the sprinkler. It was getting late when we put the sprinkler on and we went inside and promptly forgot about the sprinkler until we came outside in the morning. What a sight, all the water droplets from the sprinkler had made icicles which were hanging from the branches. The apricot tree is a real picture.  What do you think?
