...is about to begin. I just received my shipment of roses--three bareroot plants. Tomorrow I have to get a pot in which to put them, temporarily, until I can prepare the yard. We have to order a ton of topsoil before we can start planting things. (I wasn't expecting the roses to get here so soon.)

I haven't even decided where to put things yet!

1) Oklahoma
2) I think his number's unlisted.
3) Why would SAS have anything to say about this?

I certainly hope that you have GHP on topsoil duty. Get the shovel out and put a sticker with his name on it.

Baby girl, just remember, roses love bullsh1t. Make sure you work plenty of manure in with that top soil.

Last time my parents had a ton and a half of top soil delivered I shoveled all of it to keep my mom and dad from messing up their knees and backs.

I'm thinking it'll either be equally split or i'll shovel more. Especially since GHP is hardly ever home. I actually don't mind shoveling though. it's kinda fun. I like yardwork when i have the time and my allergies aren't going crazy.

Go for a two level effect, with a nice path down the middle.

You know what I find helps keep my allergies from going crazy? NOT DOING YARDWORK.

nay! one's pink, one's peach, and one is red on the outside, gold on the inside. I've adamantly rejected coral/orange colored roses. :D
