This was my first big project on the house. I took several weekends of root and weed pulling, bed preparation and palting to get it all done. Tiring. Finished and happy... me and the pachy.

I really don't have a good direct shot of what the pachy bed looked like before I started work so this will have to do. The large bushy tree on the right is a bradford pear tree and it had weeds and some dying juniper under it. I ripped it out and planted the pachy. I remember it from childhood and had a vision of a big bed of it under this large shadetree.

In progress with a bag of peat-moss.
