Stop in for a cup of coffee
So at our house we have several huge 2-3" river rock covered flower beds.
One large one is at the mailbox along the driveway adjacent to the road. We had flowers there last summer and they didn't do well.
I think between the rock, brick mailbox, concreate, and Kansas summer sun there too much heat being generated.
So yesterday we first went to the nursery and bought $400 worth of plants to replace the winter kill.
Oh, wait first I went and played nine holes of golf. :D
Came home and with her help spent four hours removing the rock, dumping it along the back of the garage, planting eight new flowers and spreading a mulch cover.
It looks nice. We had a mulch bed by the driveway and street at the last house and the flowers did well.
Only about ten more plants to replace this morning after softball practice and before some golf time got a tournament tomorrow.
Have a great day!!
