Being Upfront With Our Gardening


This week, we're concentrating on the front yard, starting with the lawn. Previously, back in December, we overseeded out lawn with a heat-resistant blend.


With the El Nino rains, the seeds have sprouted and I think it's finally time to mow.


The mower hasn't run since October but it starts the first try.


Lawn is done.  See the difference from the day we seeded to today?  Much greener.


There's still a big brown patch of thatched St. Augustine in the middle.  I'll hit that with my aerator tool and see if I can coax some more green grass to come up there.
