You got tomatoes and peppers already? Wow!

I started my Tomatoes inside from seed. Two of those pepper plants are 4yrs old the others are new. My lemon tree/bushes are 3yrs old except the mother I cloned them from is 4yrs old.

My tomato and pepper plants are like an inch tall…
20 year old poinsettia, a rose plant I gave Mrs Fogey for Valentines Day(that is pretty sad), some dahlias, snow peas, peppers, tomatoes, cukes, beets and marigolds…
and my fieldstone border that it has taken a decade to finish since I carry a couple of stones found on walks with my dog intermittently back to my yard…

My strawberries are going good already
A bird pooped a white mulberry seed in my garden 2 years ago and today I just planted it on my hillside in the rotting root of a dead juniper tree that fell and I cut down when I moved in 10 years ago

I got my dog pen up. Starting my new job 5/2, so they need to be able to go outside (gonna be gone 11.5 hrs a day). I still need to lace some wire up top so they can't pull it down, stake the bottom, and put in the dog door... but the hard part is over. Chicken wire is a PITA on uneven ground. Don't look great, but effective

Looks like you did it up right for your dogs. I put chicken wire around a 25x15 vegetable garden and that sucked. A whole yard is impressive.I got my dog pen up.

Not the whole yard lol. I got .36 acres. I'd love to be able to fence it all in but $$. I only did 170' round trip. Wore my half old azz out tho
Beautiful to see that in your sweet backyard 
When I lived out near Calverton (old air base) was nobody
What kind of dogs do you have? Your fence looks nice. Good place for them to come in and out. As long as they are not diggers you should be goodNot the whole yard lol. I got .36 acres. I'd love to be able to fence it all in but $$. I only did 170' round trip. Wore my half old azz out tho
Hopefully they realize what a nice place you made them and don’t try and dig under for more access. I’m lucky my old dog doesn’t think of that stuff anymore but I have had to bury fence 1-1/2 ft under the ground to keep them in in the past.
