CEA's progress report #11
Item #35. Finish filling the "Secret Garden" bed with gravel.
Did it! Youngest brother was here today with a tractor, and he scooped up several loads of gravel and dropped them in the bed. The "Secret Garden" is a shaded triangular area, approximately 9 x 17 feet, on the northeast corner of the house where only a few scraggly weeds grow. I cleaned out the area, bordered it with large rocks, lined it with a grey weed cloth, and started filling it in with gravel, but shoveling the gravel, carting it, and unloading the cart was quite labor intensive for me. Thanks to brother, the job was finished in less than 10 minutes! The Secret Garden will be a good place to move my pots of ferns when the temperatures rise.
