Your wall is delicate compared to my jungle.
Weeds don’t just come from below; they also come from above.

Last year, the new section in front of the house was relatively weed-free. Dandelions were removed immediately and that was it.
This year, there is endless sorrel, St. John’s wort – no idea where it came from, so it stays, pansies, hazelnuts, and the occasional wannabe oak. Sorrel and hazelnuts are quite unaffected. Everything is newly arrived.

The tree has really tasty apples.

Not everything fits in one picture

One idea for a slope would be to lay erosion control mats over the membranes. These are available made from coconut fiber, which decomposes over the years. The mat is quite coarse and could hold mulch or wood chips well.

My wife has been busy again...

She started building a small rock garden with slate stones at the front entrance area. It’s not finished yet.

The lawn edge there is only temporary for now. It will be set into the ground later. In addition, quite a lot of phlox will be planted.

Then we removed the turf from the entire sloped area by the house and also planted phlox there. A lawn edge for the robot mower will be added at the bottom as well.

And the triangular flower bed by our terrace, which we planted last year, has really exploded in growth.

It’s growing more than we intended 🤨

Our plantation

Melons, cucumber, and co.

Nothing special, but we like it. We think the raised beds from Biohort are really nice both visually and in terms of quality. We use them for our vegetable garden, and behind the carport, we have our raspberry patch 🙂
