solarbirdI got the bed planted - an assortment of cold-weather greens and some sugar peas. Hopefully they'll come up well! I also have enough seeds left over for replanting if need be, or fall planting for a second crop if things go particularly well.
I've further cut back another many feet of blackberries, tho' I didn't get much into digging out the rootballs. I've left stalks up so it'll be easy to find them again to pull. But with that one dead tree coming down on its own, and another, smaller dead tree also having come down (onto a still-living tree), I really need to get on this creekside knoll and get it cleaned up, planted, and stablised by something other than blackberries and horsetail.
I'm considering a little bit of a wall, to build up an ornamental area and keep an easier path clear to the garden bed. I'm not sure about that yet. But I think it could be done, would be a reasonably small project, and would look nice. But I don't know how to build the kind of wall I'd want.
And now it's raining, which is good, because it's watering in the seeds.
I sat for a while in the reading nook facing the back of the house (and, accordingly, the retaining wall), and it's much brighter there now. So that's good for the apple tree and the roses, too. Yay!
