I wanted grass under my pine tree instead of the nasty mud that continuinally was tracked through the back door and into my kitchen. I was told it wouldn't grow. People suggested river rock or something similiar. Well 80 pounds of lime, 25 pounds of grass seed, and 80 pounds of fertilizer later, I have grass. Hurray!




I know what you are thinking. There is only grass in one area, and it has a lot of weeds. True. This morning I fed it weed and seed to take care of the crab grass that also grew. In addition, the other area belongs to my neighbor, and I refuse to plant grass for the mean nasty landlord that owns the house. He is the reason we still have the eyesore pine trees.

While I am on the topic, check out my canons! I know they do not look like much right now but they will bloom huge orange flowers by July. I stored the bulbs all winter and potted them in March inside. I transplanted them after the last frost into the ground, and they are doing beatuifly.



And to put the icing on the cake, the new porch is complete. Thank you Heather Dawn for all your help. I love it! I still need to buy a little table for the center. I am waiting to find the perfect one. Check it out!
