got a rain barrel and new pots for the front flowerbeds a little over a week ago…

the pots were filled and planted shortly after… three were moved into their correct places and three were put along the driveway waiting for work to be done on the north side bed…

yesterday my grandson and his landscaping friend arrived to beautify the space…

they worked for five hours… removing ferns, weeds, and most of the wild rose which had taken over the space… they redesigned the shape of the bed and put down landscape cloth, laid paving stones where the pots were to go, moved a fountain and the very heavy birdbath… and lastly, dumped and spread fifteen bags of mulch…

it looks amazing…

so happy;-)…
