This past week has been a bit of a blur trying to grow a little Juniper, most of my time in the garden has been observation rather than interaction.

What’s growing on with you all? I hope your gardens are bringing you joy

    Thanks for the tips! It’s been an interesting process so far. Right now lots of weeds growing which I don’t care too much about, however the HOA might get annoyed…

    The thyme seems nice although it’s not native to the pnw from what I understand and would like to try and have something native if possible

      I haven’t lived in an HOA but I have some friends that do, does yours have any guidelines or rules about garden edging or borders? One of my buddies was getting heck from his next door snitch until we put some stones around his “weeds” patch and tossed a little mulch down. Once it looked just that tiny bit more formal the complaints died down.

        So the only part that is our responsibility is our backyard within our fence. Everything else is done by some landscapers once a week. I can’t recall immediately if there are exact rules on how our backyard needs to be maintained, but our across the way neighbors who we’ve become friends with have said if a lawn gets completely overrun in weeds some neighbors may complain but really most people in the neighborhood are pretty chill
