Weird habits in the garden!

I have no idea how weird the neighbours think I am - guess nor do I care lol. I have just vacuumed my garden (and the neighbours are probably calling the men in white coats as I type lol). Let me explain ........... we have a deck under which there are some small flower beds, during the winter we feed the birds profuse amounts of seeds on the deck. Consequently a large number of seeds end up in the flower beds. I have discovered that the easiest way to clean these out is to wait for dry weather, loosen them and then vacuum them off - no odd weird flowers growing then for the rest of the summer. It may look crazy but it WORKS - if you don't believe me see the picture. So come on admit to your crazy (but effective ..... or not) deeds in the garden and reassure me I am not the only lunatic here.

If you were my neighbor I would take photos and make a webpage about you. LOL Your neighbors can only think "She definitely keeps a tidy flower bed." Keep up the good work.

I do not have a garden but i really enjoyed reading about your trusty vacuume adventures! If the men in little white coats show up offer them some tea and cookies while they relax and admire your birds and ingenuity.
