planting in the new raised bed

Some pictures of planting in my new raised bed.

This is the mulch I use to deter the cats. It is the hulls of the seedpods of the large catalpa that shades my front yard. I have cleared a spot and sliced through the paper underneath.


Here's a picture of a catalpa seed pod still hanging on the bare tree.

Also a lot of dandelions!

Three New England Pie Pumpkin seedlings. I know, I should snip at least one of them.
I dumped a bucket of soil right there and mixed it in a bit; the rest of the raised bed is filled with straight compost.


Irises are blooming! The purples started opening last week. The whites smell like lemon.

Can you move one of the pumpkin seedlings?
