I finally fertilized the rose hedge. I dug a small trench with the trowel all along the side of the hedge and put in Lily Miller 5-8-4 rose food and added some Colorbust 15-30-15 to give it a little more oomph. It took two small bags of the colorbust, and one large bag of the rose food.

We got a dump truck load of compost from Tucker Lawn Care for the area where our aspen trees are. We’re putting down weed fabric and laying the compost on about 2-3″ thick. I hope it stays looking good without much maintenance. It’s beginning to look really nice.
