It has just been completed today
The promised seed had never arrived, so I telephoned and cancelled, and then drove 120 miles to collect seed from another source
Local farmer then sowed, harrowed and rolled and finished the job this afternoon
It was important to get it done before it started to rain .... it kept the roads clean, and rain is promised tomorrow so the seed will get settled in well
Now all we have to do is wait until the grass and flowers appear
Apparently for the first year only the annuals will show, with the perennials appearing the second year along with the annuals that have re-seeded themselves
I can already hear the butterflies and bees clapping and cheering raptureously (and if that isn't a word it should be
)
