What have you been procrastinating about?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for May 27, 2009:
I have been procrastinating about working in my gardens. Karl has a wonderful vision of how they can reach their potential, and I have been dragging my feet. I haven't been very supportive in his garden beautification project. I've been a stick in the mud, as a matter of fact! I think perhaps the idea of failing is keeping me back. Yeah, sounds silly... especially now that I have put it into words. I have an idea of how I would like the gardens to look, but I'm not so sure I can get them to look that way - especially the rock garden. I suppose it's time to try my hand at beautifying the gardens. I know that Karl will be there to help me breathe life into my ideas. I suppose if they don't work out right, I can always just rip them apart and start all over again. I'm going to make sure that the landscaper doesn't get too close with his weedwacker... last year he took out all of my mini-irises with one sweep with that monster! I will give it my best shot, and I'll let you know what the final product looks like!

Add some grit to your rockery soil and read up on preparation first, giving each plant the right conditions helps to ensure success.
Thanks for the suggestions, Gael! I will do some research first. I'm looking forward to a beautiful garden.
Hugs!

Yep, I'm with Gael - if you prepare the soil well the plants will fourish. I'm sure it will look great and that you will enjoy the beauty of your creation.
