Been landscaping :(

[Tonyscoots84]

Im exhausted! But i learned a new trade :biggrin:

Started with this ugly bush on the right. My neighbor had the same one and ended getting a ton of those bag worms. I had them as well so i got rid of the bush. Pulled it out with my truck



Then had to do something with this



Which then became this



And added a tree (beautiful tree. Summer chocolate silk) I just don't know why its leaves are falling off. I hope its not going to die but I'm going to add a 10 10 10 fertilizer to the soil tom.



Next project cause I don't do enough during the day :sigh:





and then



after that



Had an irrigation line running through the trench, so I had to relocate that to the other side of the trench. Also had 2 1" irrigation lines running on the bottom of the trench by the tree which i was not moving





Leveled and stepped down (done today after work :sigh







Thats all for now. I hope everything will be done on sunday. Will start the landscaping blocks tom. and finish sunday hopefully

Nice work. I enjoy gardening and projects in general as well. Last year I did my entire yard which used to be one big mud pit

 

[Tonyscoots84]

i enjoyed it to a part but i took on a huge challenge. After looking at how to's and researching best methods i think i mastered it... BTW i did it all myself from a-z as well as picking up all material from home depot and bringing it home (including the blocks)... I'm still in pain loll

 

[Nandez13]

I hear ya. It's more gratifying that way though. This was my before/after pic through 4 months after I moved into my new place

 

[Tonyscoots84]

Wow looks great. You did alot of work back there

 

[Tonyscoots84]

ok I'm done for this year!

The new front bed looks amazing T. You recovered yet?

 

[Tonyscoots84]

Really? A landscaping business. That's awesome. You've got talent and I'm sure others have seen it. Best of luck with the new venture. :hug:
