My Little Puddle
Dianna:
I ought to be ashamed to tell you what I did to my little puddle at the end of last year. I will show you a picture, though, when I get it down/up loaded to help explain it....
In the meantime, when am I supposed to start feeding Samson and Delilah again? They sure are looking hungry out there....

Yep, the mulched area around the pond has the greenest grass within 20 miles. I've already mowed it once!
Dianna:
Since the hay worked so well as mulch for me last Spring, I thought I would try to mulch with again at the end of winter. I picked up a bale at the feed store and put it into the trunk of the car. Jim said he would bring me more, if I needed it. He brought me three bales home in the truck.
I didn't take into account that the bales I used the previous Spring had been setting up for a year (since the wedding) and that the seeds died during that year. Let me tell you that those fresh bales had really viable seeds! ;D
Jim mowed around the pond for me a couple of days ago. I told him we need to spread hay around all eight acres to have the prettiest lawn around!
Anyway, I will definitely be finding something different to mulch with this year... :D
Penny:
Hey...how cute,....I'll take that little puddle ;D
Dianna:
I just added some real plants to the pond day before yesterday:
Louisiana Iris, Mini Cattails, and Calla Lily
I can't wait til they grow. They were sprouting in the pots we bought them in!
