I was never on top of our old yard @Former-Member, lots of big plans but no energy or motivation to make it happen. Gardens here are all established so much easier. Discovering lots of flowers around the yard coming out which is a nice supprise. The biggest advantage has been the all ready established and defined gardens set up for low maintenance.
It has actually been easier than I expected getting used to the town living.

'Onya for picking up litter around the lake. One of those claws might be better for your back. Public green spaces are so much nicer when kept tidy.

I wonder too if our garden is too much for us to handle especially when Mr D is unwell.
We did however make a plan and I think the base structure is working well and I can see in time and with time and with a bit more judicious planting it might be ok. Finding the right plants that will thrive with limited TLC I think will be the key at our place.

A couple of small jobs done in the garden today.
- moved a 1/2 barrel that has a water lily in it (plant next to it was overhanging it).
- weeded an area, freeing a shrub that was not previously visible.

Have just transplanted two small peach/nectarine trees. Hoping to get a mixture of varieties. White flesh, orange flesh, peaches or nectarines. Strains. Early and late varieties. Put them into smalls piles of dirt mixed with pellet fertilizer & gave drink of liquid fertilizer. They've wilted little... have two warmish days coming up... hope they come good overnight... all up there is now four peach/nectarine seedlings out there.. will closely monitor and nurture... and will have to protect from dog running around and possibly eating/chewing/ pulling them up...
