......for the spring.

Cleaned out all the beds. Cut up, with scissors, all the left over plants and buried the cuttings in trenches (2 trenches in each of 10 of the beds), covered every one of the beds with a thick layer of compost and covered all of them with about 10 inches of hay mulch. Still have to mulch the paths.

The first picture is of Jimmie's memorial TEG flower garden bed (can hardly wait to take a picture of it filled to the brim......THANK YA'LL)

You've been busy! Everything looks great. I think a memorial garden is such a wonderful idea. Beauty and memories together... Can't wait to see the pics.

It looks good boggy. I like the statues and I think everything will look really pretty come spring. Can't wait to see what you planted/will plant.

Boggy b,

It is going to look wonderful when it is packed with flowers & the scents are wafting around......you can see already that you have been working so hard on it. The statues will give it real focus.

Oh that is so wonderful is everything is prepped! My garlic and onions were so fun to get ready, I just need to go mulch the beds and the walkways too.

The memorial garden is beautiful... even with nothing growing it is radiating beauty! I guess you can make love grow. :hugs
