St. John’s Garden update — 5/7/2013

Last night, Francie, Jake and I reseeded the lawn. Hoping this mixture repairs those bare spots. Until it rains, we need to water daily for a week. Francie is planning to go today. Lets keep an eye on the forecast.

Heidi stopped by – she has a short list of shrubs to present for the walkway. They are in the rose family. Stay tuned.

Adrienne worked the back and we are getting there. We need to clean out that compost (all those branches) in the rear. This will take some time. Adrienne left some lawn bags.

I think we can plan to power wash on Monday, May 20th. Thanks to Kathleen for letting us use her power wash.

Thank you Garden Group!
