First picture is today! Picture #2 when it was a field the day after I made the path, 3 is covering it with leaves that winter, then year 1 & 2. đ
Variety is the game this year. EVERYTHING came up from the seeds we threw out into the field 3 years ago. Not a single tree I planted hasnât had to be re-tubed with 6â tubes. Some are 12-15â, itâs crazy. (Oaks, Poplar, Birch, Maple).
Itâs almost to the goal in my head of not being able to see the road from the shelter I built, this time next year the Ninebarks and others will fill in the middle and I think itâll be there.
Sitting in the shelter you can watch birds perch on flowers to eat the seeds, rabbits, possum, deer, bats, list goes on.
Canât believe this was a barren grass field only 3 years ago. You can do it too!

This is wonderful. Can you tell us more about how you planned the layout? Chose the plants, chose where to place them etc.?
I remember your previous posts! Love the update!
So good!
