molarbear Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 It's still monsoon season so it was too wet to really do anything I made seed balls out of some wild flower seeds There's two other batches drying in the random spots of sun that broke through 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molarbear Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 The strange leaf/dead grass/long dead twine things that came off the irises kept the mud slide at bay I put a bunch of wild flower seeds on the edge and moved a couple of the bulbs over to wall off the wash off. If it works I'll just keep planting downward and if it fails I'll just let it all wash away and pretend the drive is a balcony Found some sunflowers growing on the floor of the shed.. at least I think that's what they are. They're growing.. on mushy wood, in a dark shed, where I tend to drop bird seed ....they're sunflowers 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molarbear Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Garden is getting bigger Thorny thing in the front bloomed but the other flowers haven't so they're still a mess... I don't know how to fix the branch snek attacked shovel repeatedly, during the attempt to relocate snek it kept wiggling off the shovel pre launch so during a frustrated attempt to keep it from squirming away I jabbed it with the shovel a little too hard snek is relocated in numerous places now 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I zoomed in on the photo to check the eyes before the attempted relocation I still haven't identified it. I thought it was just a Prairie snek but, I've never seen one colored like that. It's got a beautiful pattern when you have time to look at it and not stop it's lunges with the shovel Snek juice is rainbow colored, fyi No one asked... it's just with Mix's recent antics I already have the FCC on my ass, I don't need them thinking I showed blood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discolé monade Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 poor snek. it had round eyes...i don't think it was venemous.

molarbear Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Waiting on parts to work on the hummingbird cantina more Started on the Irises. Got the mutant 3rd arm ones that were extending beyond the normal flower barrier Most of them are bagged and put away but I planted a few along the top of the driveway where the water likes to wash all the dirt away They won't bloom again this year but they can still root in there and establish a foothold while the wild flower seeds kinda...... chill there 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molarbear Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 (edited) All the bulbs that got pulled got cut and put into better storage and then the hummingbird fountain finally got put together The sun wasn't out so needless to say the solar pump didn't work today Everything else is done though I used this lady's video for everything hummingbird fountain related *I hung up ribbons for the birds too **one of those photos was for somewhere else no sun sad face.mp4 Edited May 22, 2022 by molarbear 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molarbear Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I planted some sun flowers along the outside of the garden The birds got a nesting bowl Things are finally blooming...again Nothing else was really worth taking a picture of. Just a bunch of drying out and fixing mole spots 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discolé monade Posted June 2, 2022 Author Share Posted June 2, 2022 it looks like i will be making 'grow bags'. yeah, this one is a mess, but i know the errors. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molarbear Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 (edited) They're blooming! the poorly edited paint is the potential plan leave everything outside the brown line alone except for thinning a little, most of them are blooming and they keep people from being able to see packages on the porch Clear out all 15 layers of jungle rot inside the circle so you can see the yellow circle again which is just a big rock that someone saw 50 years ago and thought "This is a perfect front yard rock" I'm really hoping one of the japanese maple seeds I planted takes so I can stick one of those up there and call it good, if that fails I'll just stuff some flowers in there until I find a permanent fix (flowers...the flowers will probably end up being the permanent fix) *Picked some Green Beans right before it got dark Edited June 4, 2022 by molarbear 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molarbear Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 The Garden got tired of the heat and gave up The make shift soil sample is suppose to have 3 colors at the bottom, it's not the best pic but there's only 2.. and it's 97% sand Which explains the yard The new plan is to assume the fetal position and cry while trying not to think of all the dirt that needs to be moved in during the Fall....when the ground isn't concrete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do, that darker stuff on the ground is from it. I aerated, and spread that with the intention of putting seed down but after a few weeks without rain I didn't see the point...and then it all turned into dust Trees get watered every night when it's this dry, Garden gets it every other day unless it looks real bad. There's a plus side to all this, I haven't had to mow in 2 weeks 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
