New Garden Plans

We have some new garden plans. And true to form at this household, we do everything backwards.




After our last dog passed away last month, we decided not to have any more pets, at least for a while.
This area was used by three very large female dogs over a fifteen year period for their "potty place."

We put down lime and covered it with mulch because obviously no grass is going to grow here for a long time.

Now we've decided to make a shade garden, so we have to rake back the mulch and shape the area. Then plant some divided hostas and of course buy some new plants. Stay tuned to see how it turns out. We should be done in a day or two.

Can't wait to see the "after" picture! I'll probably enlarge my shade garden after my 12-year-old chocolate lab is gone.

It's so exciting to start a new endeavor. Particularly a thing of beauty such as a garden. I'll be tuned in for what happens next!
