Summer maintenance work.
We have applied for plants from Dane County, so if the plants are forthcoming, we will need to plant them late this summer. If you pass near the garden regularly, or live nearby, please pick up sticks around or in the garden. Sticks and branches fall from the tree overhead and break down the garden plants unless removed. Place branches between the sidewalk and street, by the first telephone pole downhill from the garden.
Some light weeding around the edges is also needed.
Low-maintenance design
The garden requires relatively little work. We've created up to 5 layers of plants. It's so shady that few weeds can grow.
