Shrubs

This weekend we did a little landscaping. We planted 9 Red-twigged Dogwoods. We hope they will become a hedge against our fence, giving us a little privacy and keeping Jeff off the fence.

Robert was in town and helped. Thanks Robert.
CJ and I dug some holes too, CJ more than me.

Jeff killed one of the pots the bushes came in.
He broke the neck of the plastic pot for sure.

Here's how it turned out.

We still want to add a couple more, even possibly a second row. We will also be adding a couple more lilac down on the far end.
