Does anyone else enjoy such luck?  |
I seem to regularlry get nipped by green ants, miscellaneous bugs and from pruning our many bouganvilleas, who seem largely unbothered by our clay-based soil.
Lately im carrying multiple scratches and scars from pruning the snowdrop/snowflake trees i planted along the front. They are 15 years old and grew a good sized canopy this year.
