Do you have any special fall tasks that you dread when it's time to put your garden to sleep for the winter?


I dread digging my cannas every year and dragging them to the basement to dry for next spring. I have to get them out while the ground is dry, or the fall rains will turn my beds to a taffy pulling contest. I only plant a FEW, but I end up with LOTS! (That's little ol' me just reclining on the big pile of roots. :) Ha Ha )
