Mulching all the beds and trees

Home Depot has the Austin Native Hardwood mulch that we like on sale for $2 a bag, so it's time to mulch all the trees and beds.  We bought 99 bags over several days -- can only fit 18 to 20 in the car at a time.

The Lavender Bed took 11 bags (although almost all the lavender has died).


 The right side of the greenhouse took 7 bags


while the left side of the greenhouse took 10 bags.


 The bed around the Monterrey Oak took 8.


The 3 Elm trees on the West side of the house took 8 bags.

 

 The big Oak in the back yard took 4 bags.


 The front bed, on the right, took 10 bags.


 The front bed, on the left took 5 bags.


 The big oak in the front took 4 bags.


 The peninsula between the two driveways took 17 bags.


There's a new bed around the Shin Oaks in the back, between the two branches of the River of Rocks.  It needed 4 bags.


And then we needed 1 bag for the Pecan in the back,



and 6 bags (so far) for Zone 2.
