A Marvelous Work of Staggering Genius

When one gardens as well as me, you tend to get used to people referring to your creations as works of genius. However, seeing my work every day, I tend to become inured to its brilliance. Yet every so often I do something so marvelous and so brilliant that it makes me realize just what a gardening genius I truly am. Today was one of those days. 

I had long planned to formalize the border around my front and side garden. I had put down bricks temporarily to keep the condo grounds keeps from interfering with my gardens. But this border looked ragged and messy and required formalization. I begun this project today.


Once you cease being stupefied by the brilliance of what you've just seen, you will see that I've put down fine sand base in order to ensue that the bricks sit level and then arranged the bricks into curves so graceful that designers from the world over will no doubt make pilgrimages to my garden to seek inspiration from them.


Perfection.


Next week I will get my yearly load of mulch and fill this area in.


The curve is so graceful you would think I used a giant compass to plot it.


Now that I've finally completed this area I can fill it in with more marvelous plants.


Now, seeing as it is undoubtedly difficult for you to comprehend the words you are reading given the glorious sights before you, I will fall silent and let the brilliance of my work speak for itself.
