New Trees

 We have lots of new trees!

These pictures are before Kyle mulched them all

with nice fresh red mulch...

Here are the new peach trees.

Next to the garden - on the north side

so as not to shade out the plants, but to

offer some shade to the rest of the yard.

Out new little grape vine is already getting leaves!

We got 3, Catawba, Concord and.... something I can't remember.

We ordered them from Urban Farmer and 

they came as bare root stock, all wrapped

up in a wet paper towel.

They are looking healthy and happy!

The ice cream banana is in the corner.

Might have to move Sir's skull...

We are hoping the banana will get big and

then throw off shoots so we can plant

more down the fence line between our place

and Brock's next door.

(Screen us from the City People who come to 

pick up their produce on Thursdays...)

Plus, who doesn't want to eat a banana

called ICE CREAM!

The two Haas avocado trees are on the far side of the

shed, outside of the chicken/duck yard.

They will be MASSIVE one day.

We don't use that side of the yard for anything

so that will be perfect.

(And will again offer shade to the shed and

the chickens / ducks...)

We put one mango outside the dog yard

behind the pool.

We'll see if it stays there...

we might need to move it.

The other mango is between CJ's stall and

the water trough.

It gets early morning shade as well as late

afternoon shade, so again, we'll have to

see if it can stay there or will need to be moved.

(We are running out of space!)

Might need to put the two mangos out in the 

back pasture with a fence around them to keep

them safe from the big animals...

Fingers crossed they all do well!

We will likely prune the peaches so they don't

get HUGE - and so we can actually reach / pick

the peaches! (hope we get some!!!)
