Yard work in winter - YUK!

[Marilyn]

Hubby wants to work on our front flower beds this month. I have to admit, the plants have overgrown the beds, but he wants to remove them all, put them in pots, till up the dirt and steralize it to kill all the weed and grass remnants and seeds, and separate the plants to make them smaller again and replant. Sounds like a LOT OF WORK to me.

I want to landscape the back yard, since we are on a golf course, lots of folks have their back yards landscaped like their fronts. We don't need something elaborate, but simple would look much better than what we have now which is nothing.

Rather than buy new plants to do the backyard, I want to salvage the overgrowth from the front yard and use it to start the beds. Hubby is a buy it new at the nursery kind of guy, but I think his pocketbook will allow him to consider the option I'm proposing once we get into it.

Just hate the time this is going to take. UHHHHH!!
