I rarely do before and after pictures of anything because I'm so embarrassed by the state of the before in the picture that I don't want to show anybody what it was like, I just want to fix it. It is nice, though, to have evidence of how far you've come I guess. So this time I thought I'd go for it.
Unfortunately all the batteries in all the cameras were dead. Fortunately my Flip
camera was all charged up. So below you can view digital evidence of half-assed gardening in action:If I were a fully-assed gardener I would have planned ahead and prepared this bed a year ago. Since that's now how I roll - I'm all about impulse plant purchases - I have to make it up as I go along. The landscaping fabric plus mulch might smother the weeds beneath them but it might not. If not, then the weeds could all make a beeline for the holes in the fabric around the plants and be even more competition for the poor little nursery-grown darlings. So this is an experiment.

I don't like to post before shots either! Partly because of how lousy the yard looks, but also because I don't want people feeling sorry for me and my postage stamp-sized yard with ugly views of the neighbors garages and above ground swimming pools.
But since you have taken this bold step, I will post my photos in my next blog post. Which will be tomorrow, because I'm tired from drinking margaritas earlier.
This is very good news! New bog post with photos and you had margaritas!
