Fall Perennial Cut Backs and Prunings

My fall yard clean up is well underway with the majority of the plant cut backs completed.

All my ornamental grasses, which I keep adding to each year, have all been cut back.  I also prune back all my butterfly bushes.  Not all the way, rather about a third, so they don't get to long an squirrely.

All the cuttings have been loaded in the trailer, see pic below, which will go to the town recycle center shortly -

 

I soaked with bleach and scrubbed good my (3) bird baths and flipped them over for the winter.

Really all that's left to do is rake and rake and rake, as the leaves continue to fall.

It's a process I have down to a routine.
