LANDSCAPING APPARATUS WITH SEED DISPENSER

An apparatus for landscaping having a container for dispensing seed. The frame of the apparatus has a roller swingably mounted thereto positionable against the ground for rolling the ground after the seed is dispensed. A plurality of plow blades and a rake are mounted to the frame for plowing and raking the ground prior to seed dispensing. The container is removably mounted to the frame and includes a slotted bottom wall through which the seed passes. A pair of shafts are rotatably mounted to the container on either side of the slotted bottom wall to facilitate the dispensing and are geared together with one of the shafts being connected to a sprocket mounted externally to the frame. A ground engaging wheel is connected to the sprocket by a continuous chain so as to drive the sprocket and container shafts as the apparatus is moved across the ground. The sprocket and ground engaging wheels are rotatably mounted on a plate which in turn is mounted to the frame. A flange on the frame together with a removable pin secures the roller in a downward position against the ground and the plate to the frame.
