18 Bags of Poop

A big steaming load for my new flower garden.

Well, manure. I loaded up the front garden with dark black yummy compost soil, rather than more mulch. It already has too much wood debris from the stump grinding... I figured this would be better for the plants. Now I should probably Preen the crap out of it.

Trellis

Upsized trellis for the growing clematis.

The clematis at the front door is so healthy that it has outgrown the small trellis there. I bought a set of five trellises, and set them side-by-side. When they still weren't tall enough, I used 1/2"-diameter pipe driven into the ground to prop them up another foot. The result is a curtain of vines with purple flowers all summer long.
