Rock Picking in Horse Pasture for Deck Project July 5, 2023

1 year ago

I moved up a project's priority so we could get another project finished. Today's activity didn't 'finish' a project, but it is much closer.

This is just a video of what I'm doing to create my perfect refuge.
It's not easy to create a perfect refuge... but it is worth the effort. And once you start puttering in YOUR yard, you might start to really enjoy the work.

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/
