It seems like the yard work is an ongoing affair. One thing leads to another. It started with the fruit trees. Then you need something to define their space. So it was plastic bender board. Joe and Keith have been installing a lot of that stuff !! So far I bought nine 25 foot rolls at $25.00 a roll. And still need 2 more rolls. Wow! Of course it's being put in everywhere. Around the trees; between the roses and the grass, etc. It's supposed to last 25 years. That is if nobody steps on it.
In the picture, Keith is putting bender board around the Flavor Crest peach tree.
Joe is expanding the flower bed behind the mobile. I'm going to plant some tomatoes there very soon. The Iris plants next to the wall are duplicates and will be given away this summer when they are dormant. They all have buds on them, so should be blooming soon. They are ahead of the plants in the Iris garden.
Monday, my sister and I have appointments with Miguel, our reflexologist in Turlock. We're going to The Greenery Nursery afterwards to see what new plants they have in stock. We can always find plants there that we can't find in Merced. I hope to find something to plant by the cherry trees and in the rose garden. Looking for a couple of Scabiosa (pincushion flower) to plant by the rose bushes. And of course the red Penstemon and other Perennials and Annuals to plant by the cherry trees. I may plant some Zinnias this year. They are so colorful. I am so excited about spring !!
