Yesterday, I tackled the Dill Plant That Ate Newnan again.
Before:
After:
This is the third time I’ve done this since it sprang back from the freezing cold this winter. It is irrepressible. And it’s trying to colonize the butterfly garden in front of it.
No lie, I had to get the pruner to cut through the stalks, and the frondage I carried to the street weighed about 15-20 pounds. I suppose I should dig the whole thing up, but I don’t have the heart. All I can do is cut it back down so that the sprinkler can get to the rest of the garden.
If you ever need dill, you know where to find it.
