Sand and Grit
Added Sand and Grit to white iris bed and parterre. 1/2 ton granite dust, Oconee Sand and Gravel, $20, gas for Bob's truck $15.
Casting grit over the heavy mulch gives the flower seeds a moist yet well draining environment to germinate in. On the Iris bed, it's thick enough to almost obscure the heavy layer of leaves. 1/2" (this area is so wet it would benefit from better drainage) In the Parterres it's spread much lighter. ~ 1/8"

Lime Sulfur
Sprayed lime sulfur today. 52deg, sunny, high 30's tonight, rain late tomorrow eve. The spray has dried already so there's no danger from freezing and the rain tomorrow shouldn't wash off too much. The filter on the sprayer is in the handle, cleaned.
