Gardener Comments

Garden is on a slight incline in full sun. I planted about 3 feet back from the street to protect plants from snow plows. Instead of tearing up existing grass, I put cardboard and wood chips down in early April 2023. By June the grass was dead and I cut holes through the cardboard for the plants.
??I am thrilled that so many plants are in full bloom at the beginning of year 2!

Wildlife Observed
