hi I’m Tom Wood garden expert and this
video is brought to you by the dispatch
home and garden show and holiday fest
so one of the things I love to do before
winter time is I like to take a photo
record of my landscape in the current
season I’m just watering my containers
right now I used containers to do my
vegetables this year so i just got a
tomato and some peppers and some herbs
but i like to take a picture these guys
so that I can see what I planted this
year as i’m doing my planning for next
year i like to do that with my perennial
gardens because if I want to add bulbs a
little bit later this fall I’ve got a
spot or a record of where my bare areas
are to put those bulbs in I can also see
where I might want to add some
perennials into that perennial garden
I’d like to do with my annual flowers by
taking the record of my annual flowers I
see what worked and what didn’t work
some things work better than others I
had a few things some Sun berjaya that
Thun virgina that was out of control
this year and then the last thing it
does is it gives me a little opportunity
to be inspired in the wintertime when
it’s cold and snowy I can pull out those
photos see what I had and kind of look
forward to spring so it’s always a good
thing to take a photo record digital
photos are a great way of doing it you
can then take those pictures and label
them you can put them in a word document
and make notes on those pictures that
will also help you keep a good time line
record for future seasons if you like
