Thank you Ladies, we all know what a labor of love gardening is.
SongofJoy, we converted the lawn by layering newspapers and lots of mulch on top of that, then waited about 6 months and planted by making holes through the paper and mulch. I will give more details later, I am off to help at one of the local parks today.
Ge1836, the plants were in bloom until two days ago when we went down to 28 degrees, some are still green, but many have bit the dust, but they are perennials, so they will be back. Time to clean up and prepare for spring now.
Josephine.
