Just a little dry stream bed in the back corner. That's 4 tons of rocks, there, all done in one day. No wonder I'm tired.
I think I turned out pretty good for a couple of amateurs with a shovel. It will look even better once the rocks get washed off (they're really muddy), and we get some plants around the edges to soften it out. On to the next project!
This week, we also went and got this great little tree at Costco. It's a coral bark maple and it was $30. At the local nursery, the same tree sells for $150, so it was quite a score. We hauled it home and planted it on Friday, along with a load of stinky dirt. The stinky dirt was used to fill up the garden planters and finish off planting the raspberries, still need one more, and I think it'll be a blueberry, pink lemonade, just for fun. We also planted the other pole apple.
Things acquired this week include, that great little maple, some canna lilies for the shady spot next to the house, and another cute carnation. Most of the time was spent weeding and spreading dirt.
Next up, we're on the road today for a load of bark to mulch in the front, more weeding, and working on the moon garden borders.
Gotta love spring!
