Sorry--
This is not a great before pic--late summer 2014
but, you can see the junked out porch and steps there, and kinda see the area my dear, sweet BF dug out.
On each side of the steps are some large yuccas--I never really intended to go that deep but I did intend for the yuccas and the milkweed not to grow back in this spot so I wanted to get their extensive roots, and well, then, once you're already down there, what the heck
This was last spring--start of the hole
start of the dirt pile
start of the rock and other buried stuff pile
the hole
me in the hole
and I don't have any good 'after' pics but I'll get some this summer
here's some freshly planted babes
There were dahlias on one side last year, but I am not going to put them there this year
There's this rose now in place of the yuccas
and clematises and alstroemeria in there now
