LittleMsBusy finally has a garden

And now, she is also LittleMsGreenies, because she loves her greens.


Hello all, it’s been a very long since my last blog post and so I thought, it’s probably time to start again.
The great news is, I’ve finally got a garden of my own. *happy dance*
And, yes, I think it’s probably time to start my own gardening blog. Oh, it's very exciting.

Our new suburbia place has backyard and front yard that were originally covered in crushed rock, gravel type, very not kid friendly.


Lots of weeds were growing on the yard when we moved in, which we had to pull out manually.
I ordered new soil from Soilworx, 8,000 litres of Organic Soil Improver, Lawn Mix for the grass area, and Garden Soil for the planting areas.


All of this done within 2 days, thanks to my trusty lawn cart and spade.

Next, came the grass delivery from StrathAyr. We picked Santa Ana Couch, a softer blade variety, which I personally prefer because I like to walk on them barefoot.
This was done the day after, as I was running out of time.
Not ideal, as they should've installed in the same day as they were delivered.
But, I was working on this solo, so, can't do much about it.
The laying process was not too bad, they are heavier than I thought they would be, so loading them onto the cart was a bit of a challenge.
But, all done now!! I probably wouldn't do this ever again :-)
