Since moving in 2 years ago I have wanted to get the flower beds behind the pool cleaned out & looking nice again. They had been neglected for many years & it was a monumental undertaking. There was a picket fence along the top edge that I wasn't sure if I wanted to keep, it was in need of repairs & paint. One afternoon while walking around up there I bent over the fence to pull a weed. When I barely leaned against the fence & it fell over, I decided it was time to take it out. Most of the posts were rotted out so getting it out of the ground was very easy. I liked the open look & decided it was time to get this looking better.
My good friend, Trudi, foolishly offered to help so I took her up on it. We spend an entire day pulling out the overgrowth & moving some of the plants that were already there. As you can see there were amazing results. The next day Kevin brought me home some mulch so I could get the beds looking even better.

| All done! Before you couldn't see the ground it was so overgrown. |

| I changed the line of the top edge, makes it much easier to mow & looks alot nicer. |

| When Kevin brings mulch home, he means alot of mulch! |
