In the second phase of this project, host Mayita Dinos and crew set to work creating attractive, solid ground for the entryway area. - Grade and level the garden and path area.
- Lay each flagstone paver, being careful to choose each piece so that it seems to "match" the ground it's being set on.
- The edge of each flagstone should complement the shape of the flagstone of the one beside it.
- Check that each flagstone is level to avoid cracking. If it's not, fill in beneath it with sand and work it around until the stone is level.
- Plant the vines on the sides of the arbor, leaving the trellis sticks in place.
- Remove the trellis sticks, and start twining each stem onto the sides of the arbor.
- Plant the roses near the arbor entrance.
