Well, it isn't really gardening, but the job of the weekend was mowing down our wildflower meadow. We like to get this job done when the snow is gone, but the ground is still hard frozen. It's cold and dusty, and I'm thankful that John sacrificed himself to do a half on Saturday, and the rest today. To get it all down, he had to go over each area twice, as the dried stems are quite tough.
The button seedheads are beebalm Monarda didyma and the grass is little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium), which is a lovely copper color all winter.
