We are just about to plant our outside garden! We have done a massive pruning project these past few months, after about a decade of deferred pruning. We've removed hundreds of pounds of biomass. Now we are replanting with lots of native plants to hopefully have a more biodiverse backyard, which should also look a bit better than having like ...five mega bushes. They were getting dangerously close to tree territory.
I dug out a blueberry bush with a woody trunk that was as wide around as a grapefruit. xD
I installed turf because that’s what you are supposed to do apparently. I’ve since slowly seeded it with clover and am slowly changing it all over to mulch/beds/natives. I’m gonna keep a little strip of actual grass/clover though I think.
