I want to share some of my Earth Day Tips for the contest! en-us http://www.sacpaws.com/home/Blog/guitar54/163 http://www.sacpaws.com/home/Blog/guitar54/163 <p>I have the most&nbsp;&nbsp;beautiful&nbsp;Earth Friendly Dog-Run around!!&nbsp; It is complete with Cymbidium Orchids,Daffodils,Butterfly Iris,Peacock Iris,three Italion Cypresses,Eyrissoms(purple wallflower),four half wine barrels in the middle,two have storm clould Agapanthus and two&nbsp; have roses.&nbsp; I have big flower pots that line the long side of the run.&nbsp; Some have Clematis and some have various flowers in them.&nbsp; I mow the area with my mulching mower which fertlizes the grass and I never use any fertilizer on the ground.&nbsp; In fact,the only plants that get any fertilizer are the roses,and I use the systemic Insect and fertilizer by Bayer (one capful every 8 weeks).&nbsp; My dog run attracts many butterflies,birds,and little Lizzards.&nbsp; I also purchase &nbsp;Ladybugs and Praying Mantis egg sacs every year.&nbsp; The grass is soooo green because I mulch,and I do not have to worry about any chemicals that might harm my dog or the environment.&nbsp; I recomend this to anyone who wants&nbsp;a beautiful ,Earth friendly,as well as functional dog-run.&nbsp; Chris Fisher-Fong</p>
