When I first moved into my house, the backyard was nothing but weeds and dirt. I spent many hours digging up daylilies along the railroad tracks with my girlfriend and planted them along the banks. They have multiplied with no help from me...

Beautiful and lush--so inviting! How many years has it been?

As usual, the garden had to wait for the house repairs first...it is about 10 years....plenty of time for the plants to get full and spread!

We started with nothing but three acres of bare yard and trees. When I sold it it you couldn't find a place there wasn't a plant or scrub. A lot of the flowers came from the roadside. I carried a spade and leather gloves in my hatchback just for that.

We did the same for our urban plot. It was a real garden with stoned patio. I got it registered as a backyard habitat. Bad news the couple who bought the house didn't want a garden. The good news was that some family members were thrilled to maintain it.

@JackPedigo I am selling my house...I don't care what the new family wants to do...I have my pictures and a new garden to work with...it will probably be mostly containers now since I don't want all of the work in retirement...

Here is one shot of the garden. It's small but has a lot of plants including 3 apple trees.

@JackPedigo Love gardens that just seem to flow so naturally with the space...it is lovely!

@thinktwice We had a friend who is a landscape architect draw up the plans. He did say it was only a recommendation and we didn't always follow the plan.

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.

Posted by 1patriotOne of the main reasons for last year’s ‘spike’, which the media and government agencies have avoided mentioning, is the Hunga Tonga volcano eruption two years ago.
