Isn't it great to have good friends with a dog?

What do you do when you have 700 sq. ft. to fill with plants, but no money? Have good friends. Even better, have good friends that have a dog that have been destroying their perennial bed.

Friends of mine have a very large Basset Hound. He is very lovable, but he's been destroying a very large perennial bed with beautiful hostas, ornamental grass, phlox, delphiniums, and lamb's ear.

They just want the bed covered in mulch to be dog-proof. I generously offered to dog-proof their bed and transplant all of their beautiful perennials at my house.

More pictures to come when these perennials are planted in my front hill.
