Beginner Gardening: Does anyone practice "no dig" gardening?, 1 by Badseed

Angie, the dirt is mounded a foot tall or more. LOL My daylilies are flourishing and blooming well. I had three double axle dump truck loads of dirt put in just those two beds. The new three beds are not as tall but they are tilled down into the ground.

The first beds I put in are filled with lilies, perennials, bulbs and hems and all are doing wonderfully. The soil here only has about four inches of top soil and beneath that is very loose clay. It falls apart when you dig in it.

I still only see all the things that still need done but it is nice to see how many cars slam on the breaks to look and lots of people stop to ask about the plants.

Here is a pic when they were first put in.
