We planted 10 new trees. That include removing/replacing 4 dead ones.
It was hard! Don’t think we can do this again! Popeye did all the hard work!
 ENEACRO 1-1/4 Inch SDS-Plus 13 Amp Heavy Duty Rotary Hammer Drill Ordered the tool. It is a time saving in digging holes. |  First hole! First try! The ground is hard like cement! |
 Scooped the dirt out! |  |
 2nd hole! |  3rd hole |
 |  Mix 2/3 of local dirt (white)+ 1/3 planting mix |
 1st Mock Orange bush. It will be train into a tree. |  Removing two dead stumps! |
 Second hole. |  2nd Mock Orange |
 3rd Texas Privet (replacing a dead one) |  4th Texas Privet |
 5th Texas Privet (replacing a dead one) |  Got the knee pad for our old knees! 🙂 |
 6th Texas Privet (replacing a dead one due to grubs!) |  Had to treat grubs in the ground! 🙁 |
 7th tree (3rd mock orange) |  8th Texas Privet (replacing a dead one!) |
 9th Texas Privet (for privacy purpose) |  The 10th plant! beginning of re-doing this corner. It was harder and harder to “dig” a hole! |
