This is the first year I have ever planted a garden. Put it in early last week. It is a flower garden and I followed the instructions when planting the bulbs. I put in Lilies and Gardinia's. We will see what happens. I am hopefully optimistic. We are also reseeding the whole yard, which the landlord is very thankfull about. We moved in last August and the yard was a disaster. Many bare patches, no one had raked in a long time and so on. So we are using a garden weasel(that is what DOug said the tool is) and heavy raking the whole yard on the weekend and then reseeding it with Scotts grass seed. Hopefully it turns out really nice.
