Gardening
We've spent two days (so far) pulling fish fern and asparagus fern out of a section of our garden. Dh didn't know we had an old septic tank in that part of the garden until we started on this. We're planning to get a load of dirt in and then fill the gaps with bulbs and pots until the landlords decide what they want to do with it, but we were just so sick of looking at the tangle that we got permission to pull it all up. I figure we have at least another day of pulling stuff out before we can poison the area (have to because the ferns drop nodes as soon as you start pulling and if you don't poison they just start popping up all over again).
I'm also thinking of putting the robin gordons that China doesn't like (keeps ripping up) in the landscaped area out into this section so that at least they might have a chance to grow.

Oh Kylie.. I had to laugh at you ripping up fish bone ferns when I have them growing in pots on my balcony.Living in a second floor apartment I don't have a garden just some(tough) plants in pots.Tough because the balconyfaces east and gets hot summer sun, and those riproaring northerly winds.
What are ......robins? A new one on me.
Ellie.

Robin Gordons are a type of Grevillea, with a yellow flower.
