Since I sold the car a year ago I have to keep myself busy with something. So I modded the house this weekend. I’ve been meaning to do this since I bought the house, and finally got around to it. I’m really, really sore now…
Finished with the edging. Now to remove the grass. I tried to do it by hand but it ended up taking forever and wore me out, so I went back to Home Depot and rented a tiller to get the rest of the job done.
Took me and the fiance both days to finish everything, including repainting the porch. It came out better than expected, I just have to figure out what kind of plants I need to put in.
I was thinking about it, but sometimes people have to walk on the lawn to get to the passenger side of the cars so they would be treading over the bed and plants.
Overall it won’t be bad to put plants in, just slide the mulch over, cut the weed block, dig a small hole and drop it in.
+2. While it looks great now your mulch is going to be spilling onto the grass every time it rains. Plus when you try to mow around the curved edge the mower is going to suck up mulch as well.
Except without an edge to trim against it ends up throwing the mulch everywhere.
Trust me, i made this same mistake with the mulch on the left side of my house. It looked great for about 3 weeks, then we got a heavy rain and a bunch of it got washed into the grass.
