Q.Trying To Plant In Hard Yard Soil
My yard is very hard. Is there a way to loose up the soil in the yard to plant flowers? What type of tools would I use to dig in hard soil?

If you do not have access to heavy machinery, then a shovel, pick ax, agar, and hoe will come in handy.
Generally, a tiller is the best way to break up your soil, though. Just be sure to add plenty of organic material to the soil. Earthworms will help break up, and keep the soil texture loose. These articles will help:
