Looking good

So far everything looks great! Looking forward to seeing things explode in the spring. The plants looked great on arrival and for the three days it took me to get them in the ground. A little water was all they needed. Now that they're planted they seem happy and healthy.

Native critters love to munch

Items came and I planted them the next day. We had three days of lovely rain during which the critters ate my plants
