Today is The Day .... all of my bushes/plants are in the ground! I am not going to know what to do with myself without something that needs planting hanging over my neck like a guillotine (just kidding). I still need to mulch tomorrow, but that doesn’t count because no hole digging is required.
No company this week (week before we had company 3 days, one was a dinner/overnight/breakfast) so that has been a break. I did make a trip Wednesday to a town over the mountain for a new Clyde battery & got it installed yesterday, then mowing ensued.
I will be reworking & reprioritizing my project list, but with the weather starting to turn, the outside projects are getting fewer. I need to figure out the wood stove in the shop for this winter.
I’m guessing there will be more additions come spring, LOL! Glad you finally got it all done, though!
“I need to figure out the wood stove in the shop for this winter.”
I had a wood stove in my smaller Pole Barn at the other farm - and a BIG TV. It was a great gathering spot for watching football with family and friends. I miss that smell of wood smoke.
The house here used to have a wood burning fireplace, but Beau took that out and put in a LP insert, instead. It’s the only heat in the Family Room, and that puppy cranks out the heat to the point where I had to re-arrange furniture or be roasted alive. ;)
Congratulations! I still have too much planting left to do! The water feature needing to be rebuilt has my progress on planting stymied. Most of what I have is supposed to go near the feature, but I can’t plant them until the water feature is finished.
The landscaper is coming back on Monday to begin rebuilding it. It shouldn’t take too long, but it might.
I have discovered there’s an area on the front edge of where the feature is that is still wet and moist to the touch even though we’ve had no rain, and everything around that is dry as a bone. I think it might be some sort of spring? I know other neighbors have them. We were on the road today, but home now. I’ll have to go look at it more closely tomorrow. I wonder what plants might want full sun but like it wet. I wonder if that even exists.
