Re-making Entire Garden




Category: Garden Novice | Posted: Thu Mar 25, 2010 11:12 pm

I've decided that I have to revamp our back garden. It's completely out of hand. I've been pulling out plants, digging up sod and putting soil conditioner into the dirt. I moved 4 small banana trees that were dying in very dry bad soil. It's going to take another week of work to finish it and my 60 year old body is telling me that I'm nuts. I'm tired and sore and my hands are swollen. But it's all going to be worth it when I'm finished and have a new beautiful garden.

Oh I totally agree!! I've started some nasty projects only to ask myself WHAT HAVE I DONE? After all was said and done, it was totally worth it!

Go you good thing! I hear your pain. Often a question of balnces with these vices which so take hold of use, it may be harsh on our mortal coil but is so good for the soul. It's an intersting journey staring form scratch. Good luck and keep us all posted

I got caught up in the banana trees. You've got banana trees outside and I haven't even got grass yet. Wish I could be there and play in the mud with you. I would have loved it!
