Love the wild quality. I don’t understand how people can grow long grasses like that without getting invasive weeds; but maybe that’s just our poor soil around here. My neighbors and I are struggling with a weed from Asia, thought to have come here in packing material from China, that is literally choking out our lawns, and is resistant to weedkillers.
That garden in the video is a labor of love over many years!
Weeds: the bane of every gardener.
Before moving, the soil consisted of black gumbo. Johnson
grass, sunflowers, poison ivy; several of the
plants which came from nowhere. The soil needed a
great deal of preparation before anything could be
planted.
We had 10 acres, about half were planted for livestock
(neighbors across the road worked on the plowing,
planting,
harvesting). She had a small number of
cattle and could always use the crop.
The other half consisted of a stock tank, house and a small,
pitiful garden. Not a garden to fill the stomach, but
one to fill your soul (blooms).
A large area was home to my iris family. They can grow in almost
anything.
Our new address has much better soil conditions. Hooray!
