It's the time of year when everyone is doing some landscaping.
What do you like in a yard?
Statues, gnomes, lots of flowers, ponds, fountains?
Lots to choose from out there!
What would your "perfect" yard look like?
A flower here and there...

my perfect yard would be a sprawling japanese garden. ponds, tea house, spiritual center.
I am just going to go visit Paul lol. I love a beautiful lawn but taking care of a garden or flowers are just more work. I am already taking care of too many animals. I do appreciate a beautiful yard. I mow the lawn and buy a pot or two of petunias.

Nice garden Oz, is that you in the back? It is looking pretty dry there, how's the weather this season.
since march i have plowed and planted a garden spot, built a coop and acquired 6 chickens (and a rabbit), cleared and landscaped an area by the pond and placed a bee hive in it... somehow this spring i have become a farmer.....lol
Mrs Duke has a thing for lady bugs, so we have decorative lady bugs all over the yard. We have them hanging from trees, on flags, on a rain gauge, and standing in a flower "garden." Our neighbor has a young granddaughter (3-4) who loves to walk over to see the bugs, she'll point at them and say "Duke bugs."
The biggest issues I have with my yard are all the "new" plant/weeds that continue to grow after their seeds were deposited here from the 2019 tornado. Many of them only started growing in 2020, and some of them seem to laugh at "Roundup."

Nature has a way of growing on you, lol.
