Update #1: Keeping my perennial garden healthy and growing

Want to track the growth in my perennial flower garden! It’s a lot of work weeding, mulching and planting perennials/taking care of them so they come back year after year
Challenges Overcome: Last sunday I weeded the entire flower bed on my hands and knees (ouch!) and mulched everywhere.
Obstacles Faced: I know some plants won’t come back this year for some reason so I am anticipating that
Next Steps: Keep checking on everything to see how it’s progressing. Be consistent with watering.
Looking Back: I learned that it was definitely best to wait for mulching until after things started to poke through the ground. I was worried that the mulch would be too dense
