front yard planting done

Wednesday, May 07, 2008

I got all of my impatiens planted last night. It took F-O-R-E-V-E-R. Josh raked the mulch for me while I tried out our riding mower. (I have never once mowed, push or otherwise. I'm sure I was quite a sight.) I finished the long straight rows just when Josh finished the mulch. Since I was having trouble maneuvering the mower around things I figured I would just start planting.

I think it was just under 130 plants. I should have counted to make for sure. I finished up just as the sun was completely set. I watered them, sprayed off the bricks and called it good. Although it was surprisingly hard work, it was worth it because my front yard doesn't look like this anymore!
