Mulching

Last year we did not do any mulch and the yard really looks it. Many of the plants have grown past the point of needing mulch around them, but there are still areas, especially in front. Wayne decided we needed about 2 yards of mulch and so I did pricing. Turns out it is the same price as buying the bags, so we have started doing that instead. We can put it down as we need to rather than having to do it all in one day.

Last night we mulched around the large lilac tree and around the area adjacent to it. I also sprayed the roses in the back. I would like to spray the roses every Monday or Tuesday and the fertilize the flowers every Friday evening. If we can keep up that habit I am certain we will have good success with those flowers.
