Spring has sprung at Cottonwood Corner on Riverton Creek! Flowers abounded from the old residential plum trees at the edge of the property, to native red flowering currant and Indian plum. We made a big push to mulch any bare ground in sight to prevent weed seeds from germinating in the warming weather as March and April are major growth months.
The COVID work party pause caused many weedy species to go to seed, which set us back in our noxious species removal efforts but the Green Tukwila Partnership and Tukwila Parks Department has supported us beautifully with a big delivery of chips. We event received plant donations from a generous neighbor as well. Happy Spring!
