August 07, 2004. In the ongoing War on Grass, another skirmish was fought between the monocot armies and the dicot brigade today. Under the inspiring commandership of yours truly, the dicots scored another victory, claiming a strip of an average of a foot wide along the back side of the back yard island.
The extra room will give the large plants in this garden area, including coreopsis tripteris, Missouri goldenrod, big bluestem grass (which fought valiantly among the dicots!) and lespedeza thunbergii, some room to spread out. |
