Took the bus and my droid (wheelie cart) out to get compost. Not expensive but on the heavy-schlepping side. Got two bags of mushroom compost, 1.5cu ft/35L apiece. The saffron planters were topped off with this, burying the dried plant leaves, and they will be left to their own devices until late summer. I won't put chicken wire over the planters unless the squirrels start digging in them. There was plenty of compost remaining from the first bag to amend the rose bush (it's looking like a real plant instead of sick sticks), and my presumed hosta patch. Some of the second bag will go to the weird plant bed at the west end of the house, and the bulk of it will be shared in the lilacs and periwinkle patch. #Gardening #Plants #Saffon
