Updates, overgrown weeds and some fast work 6/19/23
Wow... I'm behind. But it was expected. I worked a LOT of hours last week and it rained... so there is a LOT of tall grass and weeds encroaching on my lilacs.
Plus, you may remember that The Hornet (my John Deere lawn tractor) is incapacitated for the moment. Catching up on mowing will take a week or so.
As you likely know, I try to record my adventures out here in the yard. Sharing what I learn about creating my Black Hills Refuge.
It's rarely exciting... for you. Unless you love lilacs and hostas as much as I do.
I am NOT an expert in growing stuff... not yet.
Since I am spending a lot of time just figuring out what can grow here and when to plant and how much water it needs, what is drought tolerant what likes full sun vs mostly shade, I thought I’d invite other Black Hills friends to join me.
The Black Hills are mostly a mix of zones 4 and 5. It’s also a somewhat dry region. Finding the right things to plant here is ... shall we say 'challenging?"
We can share ideas and support. And some commiseration over the inevitable failures.
I don’t know much about plants or soils or zones etc. I just know what I like. My learning curve is pretty steep. I invite you to make the climb with me. We can create our perfect refuges together. https://blackhillslawnsandgardens.com/
