Lily's attempt at gardening

I had Monday and Tuesday off this week, and I spent most of my time working in our backyard. When we moved in there was nothing planted there besides grass. We've put in a flower bed and planted 9 azaleas, 2 dwarf gardenias, and 3 Bradford pear trees. I used ornamental grass as edging in the flower bed. The day after I had planted the ornamental grass, I caught Lily digging it up. She's learned not to dig in the flowerbeds in our courtyard, but I guess she thought it was OK to dig in the new bed.

Azaleas thrive in sandy soils. I hope you have better luck than Elizabeth and I did. How big are your bradford pears?

They are about 8 feet tall right now. Two of them are doing ok. The other seems to be throwing a fit. It doesn't like being in that soil over on the northwest side of our yard.

Our Azaleas are doing better. We have to water them about every other day.
