Garden pre-trip, May 2014

We are just back from 6 weeks in Provence. This was how I left my garden in May. I had pulled weeds and mulched like crazy, but Elephant ears had started to emerge. While I was gone, they have gone wild. I will post tomorrow the before pictures before I start to pull them out and check my plants.

James, did you get through your garden without a chainsaw when coming back? I could imagine that Florida climate weeds are growing wast and high in some weeks.

The chainsaw wore out:-) I will post soon the before and after pictures of this scene. We have a plant called Elephant ears, which is a very tropical looking multi leaved plant, very attractive........and very invasive as I found out. The whole garden was covered in them. Luckily they pull out pretty easily. Stay tuned.
