Andy is convinced that things in our garden will grow! He built some raised beds and then last week, we had 8 cubic feet of dirt delivered. It was a very long afternoon, however we all worked together and planted seeds and plants the next day. We also got one of the flower beds in the front filled and have planted some flower seeds there as well. Hopefully the bounty will come...
There is just one potential problem - those nasty little fireants. There is a pile right next to one of the beds that we have poisoned 3 times with no results. Fireants like to eat young plants and germinating seeds. That doesn't bode well for a young garden. So, this weekend we are doing to take drastic measures to wipe those babies out - boiling water! They better prepare because we have worked way too hard to be defeated my burning little bugs!!!
