Most of the herbaceous cover here is left until spring, but it's a great time to relocate perennials to new areas, so some "tidying" happening, with beautiful geraniums planted on to new areas for the bees, dandelions left to flower, and weeds for the locked down hens to play with that will become compost later.

Will be pruning the Salix udensis soon for pegs to plant (And sell) .. it's soo early, soo prolific, a wonderfully vigorous bushy willow for hedgerows, for fodder, for habitat. Lots of strappy leaves for browsers to eat, soft branches make easy tree hay and they grow fast. Contact if you would like some pegs to plant this year.
