Spring Cleaning

Pot Scrubbing
Spring is here and it's time to get started.  This isn't the prettiest part of gardening but it is necessary.  I had lots of perennials return this year, but I also had more than a few pots in which I had planted annuals last year that I never got around to cleaning out.  So I emptied them last weekend and started scrubbing.  I don't use anything special, just a sponge, some antibacterial dishwashing liquid, and plenty of elbow grease.  

Now that my pots are clean, I'm ready to start shopping and planting.  Stay tuned.
