Sorry Betty, I thought I posted it. Here ya go!

Todd put my new raised bed together yesterday, it is 4 - 4 X 4 foot sections, and 11 inches deep. I was surprised to see how may bags of garden soil it holds. I had purchased 15 bags last week when home depot had them on sale, 3 bags for $10.00. Well, they were still on sale when I went back, so I got 30 more bags. That should be enough! I put weed cloth down first, and I added one bag of manure in each section. Tomorrow I will take my time, and start transferring the potted roses to the new bed.
Gardening is not a cheap hobby, like quilting, but I would not give either of them up!
