Grass Removal - Xeriscape

Our next project was removing the small patch of grass in the front yard that was between the houses. It was such a waste of water and time trying to keep it alive - so it had to go.

Apparently, I never took a picture of this patch of grass at any point since we moved in, so I don't have a before picture. I suppose that everyone knows what grass looks like though.

Almost Done.

We removed it all just using a shovel and muscles!

Donnie supplied both the shovel and the muscles!

 

I rolled the sod.

 

Here is the patch after the grass was removed.

 

Here is the patch after we added some perennials, mulch, and flagstone.

What a difference!
