You'll notice a line where the lawn was mowed and where it wasn't. The taller area is where the new rose border is going to be. Doing it this way saves measuring and marking but leaves a clear indication of where to start removing the sod and preparing the soil for the new flower bed.
I love the way the sunlight filters through the trees here. It limits the types of things that I can plant but it keeps things shaded and comfortable during the summer.
yes, we are near the street and people do stare but you'd be surprised how often people walking by comment on how they wish they could do it too.
There's a lot more work to do here. I'd like to put in a gravel strip on each side of the sidewalk. It would look nice and help with drainage when it rains too much.
