My house is “L” shaped, and the garden sits inside the “L” with a picket fence around the edges. The outside edges get a lot of sun, the inside, by the house stays shaded, so I get to have a big variety. I’ve noticed tho, that the redbud tree sitting behind the bench is changing the dynamics of what gets sun tho, the bigger it gets. Also once the morning glories cover the fence, things get different. I have to keep all this in mind when planting.

Well, you all have inspired me.

I went out and bought a bunch of flowers and the dogs and I will put them in this afternoon.

Might as well put the puppy's digging propensities to good use.

Let the horses out in the back forty this morning... it's really rich out there, I hope not too rich for them to be on it a couple hours a day.

Check out all the volunteer grass that has come up out of the bedding we've spread under the trees. We didn't seed it. That hay we've been feeding just has that much seed in it. We've never had real grass there before.
