Finally some nice weather!  Warmer temperatures finally woke up the turf from the cool spring.  After playing golf I can attest the rough is healthy and to be avoided!  We have been able to increase our staffing and the help is huge.  Annuals are being planted and detail work is finally getting done.

 

Summer annuals have arrived.

 

 

The clubs entrance bed completed and looking magnificent.

 

 

Sweet William in foreground and I believe Beardtongue in the background in our wildflower bed.  Almost monthly a different species begins to bloom.

 

 

Pylex herbicide applied to the tees to suppress encroaching bermudagrass.  The yellowing turf is the bermudagrass.  We will alternate Pylex and Acclaim herbicide on the fairways and tees in our quest to reduce this weed.

 

 

It has been a tough stretch for many of our trees.  Here a native sycamore is starting to recover from the disease anthracnose.  Many of our oaks are in decline from the crazy wet then dry year we experienced in 2019.  Some tree removal begins this week.

 

 

We have at least one baby red tail hawk!
