Started planting the upper deck. 5 bags of soil, 2 bags of cow manure and a half bag topsoil. Just enough for four pots. Need more soil and have to dig out some more pots

The “gamma hazel layer” has it’s first nut. First year in. Poor thing spent a year in its pot. Had one catskill on the “grime select hazelnut seedling” last fall in to winter. The other two are doing well. No signs of reproduction.

Two year old cactus starting to bloom. I think it is the state flower of Arizona

Lots of berries. Enjoyed four! Squirrels seem less interested in berries this year.

My garden blog. Here’s what’s happening.
