You know your house is a mess ...

When even the plants are dirty.

My Hakonechloa 'All Gold', Heuchera 'Blackout', and new witch hazel all got a heavy coating of dust when the masons were out fixing the chimney. Guess I'll have to wash my gardens this weekend since rain isn't predicted for awhile.

  1. That's the worst! I always have to clean up after masons and builders like this. Really rinse things good and drench the soil a few times after - the mortar dust contains some chemicals that are not good for the soil, and can lower PH. You may like to do a quick PH test in the coming weks to make sure it's in a decent zone.
