To Do this Saturday

In addition to fertilizing the lawn, I've got to trim up my sedge grasses. They are "evergreen" but they really look horrible right now. If I trim them too early (in March) the new growing tips will also turn brown and I have to trim them again. Also give them some fertilizer.

And those dang ice plants. They are gorgeous and I absolutely love how reliable they are, but I have to give them a "haircut" every spring to get the dead bloom heads off. They will bloom like crazy in May and then bloom more gracefully for the rest of the season and be a nice ground cover for this dry climate.
