Annuals

[big rockpile]

Was thinking along my Fence bringing soil in because there use to be a drive there.

Was thinking of planting Perennials because I'm lazy but leaning more towards Annuals.

If you don't mind doing a lot of work then annuals are ok. You want to watch those wood fence posts Big rockpile because they are only good for five or so years before they fail. Water seeps down the wood into the concrete and makes the wood expand and contract and makes them give after a while.

I think you have a hot, dry climate?

I don't, but in recent years we've had a few very hot, dry spring seasons. Perenials fair much better as their roots are already estabished and they provide their own protection/shade for the soil. You could have difficulties getting your annuals estabished in hot, dry weather.

Do like other Water Water Water.

Got some Cactus my wife has been watering. She tries.

Hopping this pattern breaks from here. Normally it is wet and humidity but it is changing for this little area for last few years.


My wife came home early yesterday. Why did you get off early? Because they figure a Front is coming through.

I had to laugh. Told her there is no rain coming. Yesterday I checked the Radar had two hours of rain coming. Put the Radar in motion. The rain stopped just before getting here.

The stupid thing about it is the moisture comes so close that the surrounding area now is considered in a Drought but they fell to realize we are much worse.

Funny it isn't my fence. They sent someone over to ask about treating this side? Nope.

It came to be these people from Canada wanting to just use my property. I ran them off. Then they tried suing us for a third of our property. Get this because we wasn't using it. Well in long run they put the fence up. But made it lower towards the back so they could look at my Timber. So I killed the Trees.

Now they are running around telling people how bad we are. And people are telling them different. They got a Dog they take over to KOA just to take a dump because they don't want it in their yard.

If they would have just talked to me and stay on their property they wouldn't have to build the fence and had use of my Circle Drive. But no.

I know kicking it around. Going to put Lillies along one side. Hedge on one side.

Was considering Perennials along the fence starting with Butterfly Weed.

I was thinking Annuals because of the soil deal. Matter of working with it regularly.
