Paul Kimbrel's Musing

We’ve been busy beavers in our back yard. A few weeks ago, my mother-in-law brought over a few (actually, several) plants from her yard to put in ours. I hadn’t really planned on working on the yard to any major extent just yet, but with plants in need of some soil, my plans changed.

We got the plants (mostly hastas, some ferns, butter-and-eggs, etc.) in the ground and I decided it was time to do some mulching around the plants. I bought tons of mulch and started putting up some edging. My mother-in-law also started bring over geodes she had gotten from Indiana and we started using them as edging. I was a bit skeptical at first, but they actually look pretty good.

I also got some brick edging for the front and put together a small flower bed in the front of the porch and planted some impatiens up there to add some color to the front of the house. It turned out rather well.
