Ready for winter. You don't say where you are. Does it snow? If not, I'd dig into the beds and put the old plants in topped with some manure and dirt from another bed. I'd do this over and over till the entire yard is a compost heap. If you have snow, then that won't work.

Sorry, I am in Hudson CO, about 30 miles northeast of Denver. We don't get snow like upstate New York or anything, but there is definitely some snow.

Just saw this post, and was wondering what you ended up doing. Will add that you have a good opportunity to enrich your soil by following Suzi's suggestion. Chopping the stuff up as much as you can by hand, and then running over it with a lawnmower if possible, and then letting it sit through the winter will certainly break down a good portion of it. You can work it into your soil in the spring. Or rake up the unwieldy parts then for carting away. Of course, you're breaking my heart when I hear you dug up perennials as well. I would have waited for the spring to see what might simply be relocated to another spot. My interest is more than academic, as I am starting a new garden area this next season. I have the distinct advantage over you in that it is virgin ground recently built up with topsoil and retaining walls, but I will be planting it with perennials from my existing garden, which is definitely overgrown in places and needs some work. :)

I second the idea of mulching the plant material with a lawn mower. You can reduce a giant pile of leaves, stems, etc. to a couple of bushels in a few minutes. You can then dig it right back into the soil where it will break down in a big hurry, or put it in a bin to compost.

Yup, Suzi and all the posters above have the right idea, turn your yard into a compost pile. Even in your dry climate you will have a hard time keeping up with enough material for composting. Throw everything on the lawn and set your lawnmower on a higher setting than if you were to mow the grass and have at it. Sunflower stalks should be chopped up as much as possible before letting the mower do the rest of the job. Spade, or till it in the garden beds.

You might want to find out what some of those perennials are before completely eradicating them. Some you may want. Join a garden club. Somebody there can help you with identifying the plants and their worth as a garden plant. That should get you off to a good start.

I have 10 acres and throw nothing away. It's all compost on site for me....or firewood.
