Project: Front Yard Lawn Part 3

Last weekend we got the sod laid out (with the help from some of our AWESOME neighbors) and this weekend we added rock to 3 areas in the front.

Yesterday, we rented a trailer, purchased “rainbow rock” and laid it out in the areas were we wanted it to go.

Looking southwest, “rainbow rock” in the new tree ring.
The old bark along the far left side of photo will be removed and filled with good soil.

Looking east, new “rainbow rock” along the existing curbing.
This area we haven’t finished but you can begin to see what it will look like.

This area by the existing curbing was filled with LOTS of old bark, we spent the evening last night removing it and filling it back in with good soil. We added the “rainbow rock” and then later add a few new plants as well. The “rainbow rock” will continue around the front all the way over to the  sidewalk on the north side. We need to continue to remove the old bark and then fill the area with good soil.

Still lots of work ahead but we have already gotten lots of praise from our neighbors!
Will continue to add photos, so check back.
