Large Mulching project in Sherborn


Today, I am with Rich and Guillerme putting down a large amount of mulch on a property that the other crew had been doing a lot of planting on. this property is in Sherborn and last year the owner was rehabbing the house. they had a circular driveway installed and a new planting was done in the bed on the inside of the driveway. (picture, is from last summer)

We will be using a dark brown pine bark mulch and it ended up that we used 37 yards of mulch here. It was a rainy cool day and my back acted up again, and again my SUNJING came to the rescue. It was a lot of work and we finished up around 5:30 PM.

There is more work to be done here by the other crew, a lawn area has to be loamed and seeded next week.

Large Mulching Job

Ceillo, Fabio, Rich and I went to a property located in Wellesley Hills, to mulch today. We are using a dark brown, pine mulch.

While, the guys started the mulching, I had a few things to work on before they mulched certain beds.

First, I had to trim back some roses, in the rose garden out back. It was not done, during the spring cleanup, as Rob, wanted to talk to the nursery, where he purchased them, to make sure we trimmed them correctly.

Next, I had to go to the perennial rock garden and do some weeding before I sprayed "Round up" to kill off the small emerging weeds. This area was problematic last year and we wanted to get a good start this year at controlling them. It is to the left, of the beautiful weeping cherry, that you see in the picture on the left.
