David and I built a planter this weekend, while Matt and Kurt were away helping to set up youth camp.
We started on it Saturday morning. We worked all afternoon, leveling the ground, placing the stones, filling it with good quality soil, then planting .
It consists of 47 stones, 3-25 lb bags of tree and shrub soil, 10-15 lb bags of potting soil, 4 blue hydrangeas, 1 pink hydrangea, and 72 small flowering ground cover plants.
Here is a pic of the finished work.

So if I visit, I get a big glass of lemonade and get to sit in front of the planter?
