Wanted to show all of you the progress of my latest garden. I started it in March. The picture below shows the blue hose marking out a path between a garden I planted in 2003 against the house and what I call my Island Garden. I made the grass path four feet wide. I rolled on round up with a paint roller. That worked really well!

Please note the volunteer tree growth at the side of the lot. I think all of that grew up through a hedge and eventually killed off the hedge. I moved the plants below it and am taking those trees down now.
