November 10...

This morning was good... It was kind of cold but I just stayed in my sweat shirt longer:):)  I pruned lots of wisteria and some other vines today in the service courtyard!!!!  It was fun and I got to use these really long handled pruners to reach the long whips on the top of the wisteria!!!!

After that Shippy told me all about vines and how often they cute them and how they grow and just lots of information about them!!!!  This is one of my goals and I really liked working and learning about all the different kinds of vines and how to prune them!!!!  After we got done talking I pruned some ficus on the side of the house where it was getting super overgrown!!!  I think it looks much better now!!!!

For the rest of the day I helped Shippy Plant bulbs by the gated entrance to Filoli!!!!  We planted 600 bulbs and I think they will look good in the spring... They had never planted any there before and this was a complete experiment but I think it will be a good one!!!!!  It was a long process though because we had to till the ground and then we used an auger to make the holes... hahah... this was actually really fun and I am glad we will be doing more tomorrow!!!!
