What happens here
After clearing, the soil needs to be prepared for new plants. This involves loosening compacted soil, removing any remaining roots or rocks, and incorporating organic matter like compost or well-rotted manure to improve soil structure and fertility. The video shows workers preparing the ground for new plantings. Simultaneously, select and stage the new plants. The video mentions 'flowering plants,' 'perennials,' and 'annuals.' Arrange the potted plants on the ground in their intended positions to visualize the final layout and ensure proper spacing before digging any holes.
Goal: Amend the soil for optimal plant growth and finalize the plant layout.
