New Sod and Flowers

I had leveled the ground out in median last year and in the process killed the grass because I did it too late.  I was tired of looking at it like this and have decided to put down new sod.  It took the whole day to do, but I think it was well worth it and in a month it will look like it has been there for years.



We also planted Begonias and Caladiums in Mallory's garden.  We also have some pictures of our Hydrangeas blooming and the process of our sod being laid.  So click on the picture above to see.
