WOW what a difference their yard is from last year! Beautiful! They've done lots to it. Last year I helped prepare the front corner and along the garage flower bed, harvested and planted some of the flowers, ferns and refenced the centre garden area to allow for some working room. She also had help from her family members too. Then we marked, loosened and dug the holes for the trees before quitting for the night.
Only 2 ferns didn't survive.
So far the deer don't climb stairs.
Her daughter helped frame this bed in.
I dug out the rock bed and helped plant this one. Awesome to see it so lovely.
From back of the garage to the house.
We refenced this 2 feet from the garden for ease when working there.
Saturday, July 7th
This morning we planted the trees they harvested earlier, pounded in half the posts and laid the black cloth. Then we went to B&Bs for a lovely smorg breakfast (my birthday gift too). Later this evening if it's cooler we'll finish the posts, edgings and fence them in so the deer can't get to them. And here's what Sylvia is trying to finish off inside too along with some quilting!
Now this year's project - here will be the new privacy hedge.
Awesome! It's already spoken for.
And this one she did earlier.
Well we went outside after 7 to finish off the posts, fenced in the trees and quit for the night - only one post went 6 inches in before hitting rock and wouldn't go the remaining 6 inches. Yep I got my workout today! Thankfully it was quite breezy so felt cooler! Now we're relaxing! Tomorrow going visiting and picking up the last tree for this hedge. Don't know if we'll have the energy to plant it, anchor the landscaping fabric and top off with mulch! Will see. Would LOVE to have the finished pics too!
Don't make me laugh or I miss the centre and chip off pieces!
