Another day of cleanup, this time three hours. One of the fun parts of cleanup is determining what is a weed and what is a flower. What to keep, what to remove. I know some people think a weed is anything you do not want in your garden. I do not subscribe to that though since there are many plants that can be native and/or transplanted to other gardens. It helps to have fellow gardeners to send pictures to or to email about a particular plant.
Something good that comes out of gardening is the calorie burn. Three hours of pulling weeds can burn up to 200 calories an hour. The downside is the muscle ache (LOL). Make sure to stretch those muscles and limber up before gardening.
bush with grass growing among the roots. Had several of these bushes. Took two hours to clear six bushes of the grass. 
horsetail, very invasive. Remove by cutting. If you try to pull it out the spores will scatter.
Yarrow, has beautiful flowers
