New Vegetable Edging and Black Iris in Bloom

A fabulous day here and just perfect for some hard work ! The new edging on the large vegetable garden is macrocarpa sleepers 200x100 and boy are they heavy. First thing was to get rid of the old concrete edging which was L shaped and half buried, that involved the sledge hammer, always fun a bit of destruction. And then we laid the bottom sleepers with the upper ones offset.
The front view, two high.
We won't be back filling until we have secured the sleepers with steel rods.
Each end and the other long side will only be one high, but that is for next weekend, need a rest now.
The beautiful black Iris finally opened, just lovely.
Enjoyed the project?

Marion Nesbitt on Nov 03, 2014What are sleepers? Great job. I love iris! Have two beds of them but nothing as exotic as yours.
