The Yard Of Doom & Endless Toil

I am headed out to the yard to weed, weed, WEED until the cows come home, until hell freezes over, until I'm blue {or most likely, red} in the face & still, STILL won't be done.

I should have taken photos before the big "tree clear-cutting" episode of 2007. You see, we have a virtual tree nursery in our backyard, & by virtual I mean literal. It is literally a baby-tree-making haven back there. I can safely say, with no exaggeration or wiggling of eyebrows, that there were at least 50 baby trees just growing willy-nilly. {"It's not willy-nilly: it's at crows." HAHAHAHA! What? No Corner Gas fans? What the hell?}

Okay, enough talk. It's time for action, & by action I mean I'm going to have my breakfast, put on tanning lotion & bug spray, find something 'yardy' to wear, fill a water bottle, find the phone & my smokes, & charge out into the yard around noon or so.

Will post {hopefully} before & after photos later, but here is an approximation of what the yard resembles right now...

You're so funny!

Filled 2 garbage bags full of weekds & crap that I don't want growing. I estimate another 6 before I'm done ~ and this is ONE CORNER of the yard, just the rock garden/dandelion pit I'm working on.

Ugh! I wish I could just blink my eyes & wiggle my nose & have it all purty.

There are many plants that can be grown in these wetlands like: red maple, silver maple, carpinus carolianiana, quercus phellos etc. No matter which plant you grow, they will definitely serve the purpose of enriching the natural environment and maintaining the ecological balance. The only thing to be kept in mind is that, you must take the proper guidance and also see with what is your aim of doing the plantation. native plants tree nursery
