Sulli - are you fencing your whole yard or a portion? It looks like you'll have a lot of work, but as long as it's enjoyable it goes quickly.
AM: I surveyed my beds as today was a day of gloriousness 72 and sunny and just perfect after all our rain and cool. I see I will have to do my weeding before I plant - I have a good crop of stinging nettle in my shade bed encroaching on my hydrangeas. I am also inundated w the state flower - the good old wood violet and don't get me started on creeping Jenny or whomever she masquerades as this week. I've got a lot of work to do. I think with the long weekend ahead I will plan to plant the planters and weed and get some stuff in the garden.
The compost heap is now 3/4s tilled up and dumped in areas as needed. Tomorrow night we'll finish the side left to do. The other half has the New goat poo in place and the compost that just wasn't broken down enough ie anything that stuck to my fork went back in. I'm more then happy w the compost - it's dark dark and hopefully good stuff! I kept running into millipedes, actual lady bugs and some worms!
I've posted my unknown dahlias in the hopes you can help me identify them. It would be good to have a name when I trade them or hand off to others I know, they aren't show caliber or anything, they are just lovely colored and make me happy. And we need happy these days.
