Belated garden clear up

I have been looking at the dead flowers and bare stalks for far too long so today I marched into the garden fully armed and equipped to attack the wilting remnants.
Several hours later, and one full green bin the front garden looks far tidier and respectable.
Obviously I did not do "several hours" work without a break so part way through my efforts were suspended for a blip. They were also held up for several cups of coffee but this need not be mentioned.There are Iceplant heads, not really sure what its proper name is. They are great for attracting butterflies and, even when dead, still look impressive.
