Building House in Kram

We ordered some plants and grass from a garden shop in Klaeng. The garden workers normally works in a factory during daytime, so a lot of work is done in the evenings. Here is some work done over two days and some results. Preparations First grass in place More grass in place The big tree on the left was planted this evening too. I do not know any western name on it, but will have nice flowers (according to Ang). More grass, most of the grass is called "Japanese grass", but the grass used in the shade areas in the back of the parking is called "Malaysian grass". Day after, results on the back. Also on the back. Many cubic meters of waters was used during the planting. Today, there are one person just watering more to get the grass to survive. Front side.

We have decided to add grass in the front, sides and some meters on the back. We also know that there can be some transports to and from the back fruit-garden. To avoid the grass from be ruined during the wet seasons, we are putting blocks into the grass like a small road. These blocks will be filled and hopefully covered with grass over time. By the way - the grass will be delivered in the end of August. Here is some pictures from the hole-block work. Delivery of the blocks. This was not enough so we ordered a lot more after we noticed that. Digging Preparation First blocks Progress Ready before grass
