Today I spent about 3 hrs planting 7 new plants and spreading out 1m3 of mulch - my arms and shoulders already hurt, I hate to imagine how much pain I'm going to be in tomorrow! I also originally only got 0.5m3 of mulch and had to go back for another load, good thing it's only around the corner!
Also, another helpful tip - if you aren't used to doing this kind of thing - shovelling stuff out of a trailer is a LOT easier than off the ground, so hire a trailer and help your back!!
Ok onto the photo's

My other 3 new plants Isopogon 'Candy Cones'

Closeup - these flowers are a mauve pink which should be very pretty

After the mulch:


Wow! You did all that, its amazing!
