Trying to convert my lawn from an old St. Augustine to tall fescue. I seeded the front lawn in fall, but I did it a couple weeks late, and then of course we get hit with an early frost which makes it go dormant, and then the freeze around Christmas hurt it bad. The parts close to the house are fine, guess the warmth of the house helped. But a lot of the rest hasn't really done any growing yet, and I have my doubts that it'll recover enough to survive the summer.
I'm also getting started on a mixed privacy hedge that will go most of the way around my property. Kinda going batty trying to figure out what will be OK to plant around my septic field. I feel like I could write a damn essay at this point, so I'll spare you the brain dump, lol.
Also planning to have a truckload of dirt brought in to do some land grading in the back yard. After I cleared the old grass, I realized just how bad it was. Holes from old tree stumps, holes from old fenceposts, holes where the previous owner's dog liked to dig, and spots that need to be graded away from the foundation for drainage.
