I have begun my yearly battle with the gout weed that's in my yard. Gout weed spreads by the roots and has taken up too much space in my yard. Moreover, it's bland looking - just green - and about knee high, which makes it difficult to see anything else even daylilies - at least until those flower, which is still more than a month away I think.
The gout weed battle is likely a losing one, as it'll probably come back in the places I've ripped it out of. Nevertheless, I can hopefully give the other plants near it more of a chance of doing well before the gout weed comes back.
I also transplanted a few ferns from the north side of the house to the south side, but still in a shady spot. They'll likely die back this year, but should come back next year without a problem.
Still have other plans for the yard including putting in some sitting areas and trying to get rid of some grass with the newspaper covering method.
