The Eco-Lawn seeding looks a bit sparce but it will become lush over time. To excellerate the progress yo can overseed now (with irrigation) or in the fall (with or without irrigation) and it will, with maturity become a barefootin paradise! <br />The bird episode was - in my 15 years of working with Eco-Lawn completely exceptional! Birds tend to be massively disinterested in Eco-Lawn seed! Glad it worked out for you! Keep me posted and all the best!asclepiashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11252963961645449683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-879533546985256779.post-27720788451797101262010-04-19T12:26:37.951-07:002010-04-19T12:26:37.951-07:00I also purchased Eco-Lawn, based on your first pos...I also purchased Eco-Lawn, based on your first post about it. Here in Portland, we spent a mild January and February removing the old lawn. In March we flushed out all the weeds (our former lawn was really dandelions and clover). On April 11th we seeded the lawn and now wait on pins and needles for it to germinate. We were told at the 11th hour to dust the seeds wiht peat moss to keep the birds from flocking in and eating all the seeds. The peat moss does not really cover the seeds, but is enough to keep the birds away (apparently they don't like it).Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01777671876067135523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-879533546985256779.post-43668029099831638252010-04-19T10:19:22.066-07:002010-04-19T10:19:22.066-07:00Cool look, nice project and the blue tile mosaic i...Cool look, nice project and the blue tile mosaic is a charming, personal touch:)ConsciousGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12253940238405185012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-879533546985256779.post-53248933849065031402010-04-18T10:37:57.609-07:002010-04-18T10:37:57.609-07:00Hi Christine and Scott.

I love the little deck extension off of the guest house/garage. Makes it look much more welcoming. And the mosaic is fabulous, as always!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07938196559124125578noreply@blogger.com
