Stuffed the tops of some plants in, and slashed the others down. Then DD helped me cover the whole thing with plastic. That was the one thing I could not have done alone. After the plastic was in place, I went inside the back of gh and screwed the pvc pipes to the fence, and screwed a cuple of pieces of strapping to fence also to keep the plastic from lifting in the wind. Today, I'll stuff pots and baskets in, anchor the straps with tent screws in front, place some blocks along the bottom edge of the gh, and then start on the hibiscus house......
Whole project took 4 hours. Again, I needed help with the plastic...but it wasn't as hard I I thought it would be. And I uploaded the photos to Walgreen's, sent them to a store in IL, and had DH pick them up an hour later. He was duly impressed....and is flying home this weekend......maybe to keep me from starting anymore projects...."
