Got a gift certificate from work!
Installed birdbath and extended front bed
mushroom compost
3 trailing jasmine
Some annuals, vinca and 2 lantana for butterflies
Stole a couple more purple rhizome plants from foreclosure neighbor yard. (They tried to rip them all out awhile ago anyway...these are the survivors)
Used the dripline from the bed along the path for irrigation. That thing puts out a lot of water, gotta watch it.
Continued the asian jasmine bushes from last week around the palm tree. Added 2 ferns (1/2 price!) to the bald spot between our yard and foreclosed neighbors. Asian jasmine bushes irrigation line was too much for the tiny bed, extended it over to reach the whole new bed. mushroom compost. Smells so nice! (the jasmine, not the compost)
Continued the bed the other way to include some plumbago and red fountain grass. Some annuals added. New dripline added (it was the one that had been in the sideyard but was too short). Encompasses the new plumbago plus the other new-ish plumbago from last week. Not sure the old driplines were working properly in that area. Could explain why a lot of things die there. Hm. Compost.
Almost done with Bonnie's leaves (for mulch). Crud, not sure what happens after those suckers are gone!
Andy cuts the grass and has to use a weedwacker (vs lawnmower)! He mentions the corner of the yard that won't grow. It is his nemesis. We'll figure that out soon, maybe next week. Irrigation will be a challenge there.
