Gardening Update

Hi Designers!

Summer is here, yay! And my aim is to create a complete oasis, inside and out. I'm a little concerned about my garden though. The flowers are coming along great (click here to see pics), but my grass/lawn, not so much. I think it's because it's new (put down the sod couple weeks ago), and I hadn't watered it twice a day. Add to that, I won't always be able to water everyday due to work commitments.

I invested in an automatic timer for a sprinkler but doesn't work as well because I have 6 evergreen trees blocking the water rotation. I'll have to use 2 sprinklers now. It'll be 3 weeks before I'll see much progress. Here's what it looks like so far:

See all the brown? That's an evergreen tree on the right


This is the second sprinkler to be hooked up
I'll keep you posted on the progress. Patience and consistency is the name of this game.

What do you do to keep your garden pretty? How will you keep your lawn lush this summer?

Happy designing!

Kyla
