Preparing for Old Age

[gja1000]

We just did that with our bed in front of our house. We live in Texas and do not need to be watering flowers/shrubs. So, last fall we pulled everything out, covered the area with black plastic and left it on till June of this year. Then we leveled it out and put down weed block and then a layer of rock. We are having so much fun collecting "yard art" for the rock bed. So far we have a metal yucca, metal cactus, metal horned toad, and metal road runner. We have other decorative rocks and a couple of lizards. We planted some tiny cacti in some holes in 3 of the large rocks. The bed looks soooo good, and now we have no weeding, no watering, nothing but enjoyment!
