Trip to the nursery

Ok, so J and I have been wanting to get a couple of shade trees for the yard. Since he's off this week we went on a journey today to find a nursery and buy at least one tree. We found a tulip poplar, which we've been wanting one of because they are supposed to grow quickly and be good shade trees. We paid for it, loaded it up, and headed home. We were very creative about this, here are a few pics...

Update...

Sorry it took so long. Here is our flower bed after mulching.
