Today’s Lawn, Conifer, and Ash           
          
          
 
This is today’s lawn on October 31, 2015. Though it is gradually getting brown depending on the place,
 
It is inevitable, because it’s already November tomorrow.
 
In the schedule, the warm season grasses such as Korai-Shiba (Zoysiagrass), including TM-9, do not require so much maintenance anymore.
 
On the other hand, this Ash (Griffith’s ash, Fraxinus griffithii) in front of the entrance now needs to be prepared for snow by Yuki-tsuri (snow hanging).
 
The conifers (Blue Angel) in the entrance also require Fuyu-gakoi (winter covering). Though I couldn’t do it because of other schedules today, I will prepare before it snows.
