This afternoon I am out driving around the neightborhood collecting any bagged leaves I can find at the curb and sticking them in the old 1992 Plymouth Mulch Mobile to drive home. The pickings are very slim today, almost nothing to be found. I bet in 2 weeks those same curbs will be stacked with bagged leaves.
Still it gives me a start and I already was able to just park the car at the curb in front of my house and take out afew bags and immediately use them to mulch the raised daylily bed on the right side front I call the planterbox. Plus part of Florabundaville rose garden next to it. Then I unloaded what was left in the sideyard after driving up the driveway. Then I went and got another load of bagged leaves. Thats all I can find.
So now I need to unload this last bunch and then drag all the bags I currently have upstairs so I can start mulching daylilies up there.
Things are coming along good this year. Between the straw bales I bought and used and some future trips for bagged leaves, I should be able to get the place mulched up for spring.
Last year I had my grass cutting guys dump two truckloads of loose fall leaves on the driveway and used those. I didn't get any straw or many bagged leaves. I don't want to do that again as I found it was too much work. The bagged leaves are easier to get were I want to start using them, just drag bags around. With the loose ones I had to move them from the driveway by raking onto an old sheet and it was just more work in the long run.
