lots of flowers now in the alt-grass including a new white and purple one! And the strawberries are ripe under the growing 🍎 tree!
It's weird when the driveway is the most productive part of the yard!
The hope though is that this is a preview of what our backyard will become over the next couple years. 🤞
Also managed to put the trailer back in its spot. The grass seems tough enough now to handle the traffic.

Time for a walk around the yard as I was watering this morning. It's going to be hot today (30°C)
(see alt text for descriptions)
and then there is the backyard... lol. The hazelnut tree is doing surprisingly well considering the chaos literally at its feet. The far flower garden with the blueberries and the only rose bush we like is also doing OK especially now that I have battled back against the encroaching blackberry vines.
I didnt capture the new plum, or the rhubarb-amazon, but they're ok too.
We are starting to make real progress on the pond/pool now. The inlets for the wetland filter are in the hole and we started placing the large rocks on the bottom... the first layer.
Many yards of rock and pebble to go! Oh, and I have had to peel back some of the liner
in the pool. I've decided I need to make a landing spot for one pump to live in the back corner of the pool so it can circulate water from the bottom.
Uncovered an anthill in the process! 🐜
I feel like I disrespected the backyard. So here is some backyard blooming and fruiting love! See the hazelnut!?
