Josh’s Garden, Phase II

I was a gardening machine today.  Remember this from Josh’s Garden, Phase I ?

 

I dug it all up and filled it in with one dwarf lilac bush, two mugo pines, two spirea shrubs and some cedar mulch. I also repurposed the last of the stepping stones and made a path to the water spigot.

 
 
 
 

Onward! I tackled this nasty job next. 

 

I lost count of how many rocks I dug out of this section, but it was more than you would ever believe. My back believes it, however. Oof, sore.

It’s now home to three hosta plants and some more cedar mulch. I used some of those rocks I dug up to make some neat edging.

 
 

When my back is my friend again, this is Phase III.

Very Nice!! Good variety of plants too. It's amazing how that adds so much to the look of the place. You get an "A" in shrubbery 101. Ma
