Last week I finally got around to planting some flowers in front of the house! I have been wanting to get my hands in the dirt for weeks and the sun popped out just enough to allow me to do so. Scott and I had stopped by the local flea market and picked up a few iris, crocus and tomato plants and I knew I needed to get them in the ground soon. I also had some lily bulbs that I had been neglecting in the garage that needed a little love.
While Scott slept the day away (he works the night shift) I got my shovel and started turning the dirt or should I say clay. The ground is so different here than it is in Oregon and you have to work a lot harder to get it to do what you want.
It took a few hours but they say slow and steady wins the race. This weekend I was able to get some mulch in the bed and it really looks finished now. Once everything starts to bloom is should be lovely!
