Beautiful

I am 230mi south and none of my groundnut are in bloom lol. I really like the cup plant. And the downy sunflower. It would be cool if that moss spreads as the canopy fills in. I seem to remember some sterile selections of black walnut for timber production back in the day. I saw one of those black walnut woodlots from like the ‘70s up close recently. Someone had barked them all with a mower or something and like 49 of 50 had hollow trunks lol.

Two filberts appeared in our front yard in a time I was turning it from lawn into a garden. Filberts are a native here by the Salish Sea, zone 8b. Grey squirrels had moved north to our town and planted them about 10yr ago. Last year a few nuts were seen. This year nuts started appearing on the ground and I am able to pick large nuts as well; they are green with filled shells. Yesterday afternoon I saw ends of stems and leaves shaking over our driveway more than the breeze was moving other leaves. I went out there to meet a grey squirrel above me, so I made soft noises and she(?) came carefully down to the pavement about a meter from me to munch on those nuts. I went back in our house, got some salted in shell peanuts. She allowed my return near her, so I gave(tossed) her 2 peanuts. She took the biggest one into our garden. I've been keeping nuts and some nut bars handy to share with my neighbor squirrels and crows. Before I could return again with a bar a crow family caught onto my availability, so they got treats too. The crows may be near this morning. I hope they learn to say "hello". Met a wild crow in Seattle that used that word. Really got my attention.

Oh man, I live in Windsor and was supposed to see John with a friend that night because I was 4 years in as a hardcore fan but never able to see him perform for one reason or another (mostly because of his notorious extended tour breaks over the years). I was supposed to go across the border with my friend, and after like 2 weeks of impatiently waiting for the show, 4 days before the show he told me he planned on taking this girl he was seeing at the time instead. It goes without saying I was pissed beyond belief and I didn't forgive him for like a year lol All I'm hoping for is a new album/tour next year 🙏

Damn dude it’s lush. Crazy shooting on your chestnuts, really all your trees. You’re growing a lot of bees and whatnot with the nonstop flowers lol. I know they’re green, but the persimmons look like really nice ones, not almost wild local seedlings like mine lol. It looks like you’re really building some momentum. I always think about what’s going on underground too. A lot of the good things happening you can’t see.

Pj, it looks great! The rain has really made a difference. ❤

I'm so happy we've had rain! Happy for you, too!

LOL I feel your excitement for your persimmons! 13 years is a long wait! By that timeline I may not see fruit lmao Cheers buddy! And thanks for the tour! PS As I type, I'm dreaming of success with my pawpaw's. The fruits seem to be staying on this year! Wish me luck! It will be my first taste!

Nice to see some persimmons! I’m seeing them for the first time over here near Ann Arbor. Prok just dropped but the Nikita’s gift hybrid is holding strong

Congratulations on your persimmons! Now just so it’s not a shock, this year or the next the possums and trash pandas will find them and climb out on those thin branches to get them because it’s crack cocaine to them. They will break some maybe off the trunk leaving gaping wounds. The tree will ooze black sap, then next year be absolutely fine. Then after a few more years there will be more than they can eat and you’ll get some. It really upset me until I figured out they were built for the abuse so I’m trying to fast forward you past that. I had only seen mature trees before I grew my own and learned this. It looks great, especially the roses. I might get enough hips for jelly this year. The monarda are really stunners too. Maybe try to score some mountain mint, very tough plants and similar pollinator interest, not as pretty though. Thanks for the videos.

Surprised the honey berry don't suffer from dry soil in the summer. Mine are shallow rooted

One of the changes on our site that has come in with the disturbances I have made - we now have poison ivy, which was not found on the site when we arrived. Apparently I've created favorable conditions for it. Likewise I just noticed bindweed for the first time this year.

For the first time this year I'm seeing some real productivity on any of our wild blackcap brambles. Actually pretty psyched about that ;)

I enjoy these videos. Thanks!

Dwarf Oaks? I'd like to hear more about them. Species, Cultivar name, etc. I'd like to grow some myself.

There are some fairly big (6’) white fringe trees at our local arboretum. The fruits are pretty chonky. Didn’t try them as I remembered the Oikos catalog describing them as tasting of old gym socks lol. The flowers are super cool, haven’t seen them before, might need to acquire some seeds somehow…..

Nice

Keep up the great work!

The mulching looks great. I’ve been using 6’ cages made with welded wire (10’ lengths hog- ringed together) which both work and suck lol. Plus $15 a piece. But I accidentally found a deer stymieing technique. So I planted hybrid miscanthus as an experiment. After about 3 years they started to get a respectable number of shoots and something completely unexpected happened, it hid some Kentucky wisteria that the deer had eaten down to nothing year after year and this spring I have a couple dozen flowers. I think that spacing them like 3-4’ apart, waiting a couple years, then putting seedlings in between might be a cheat code for deer predation. It’s like the grass blinds them to the things they eat. Of course I’m basing this theory on damned little evidence lol. Maple River Farms is where I ordered the miscanthus.

Thank you for the video. I just joined an Elderberry Group on FB and someone in your area is looking for cuttings so I sent her to your channel here. I don't know if you have Sambucus? Probably what don't you have? The Serviceberry at the beginning is gorgeous. I'll look more into Siberian Pea Shrub, it is mostly for nitrogen fixer? Oh and I will look up Nannyberry. The deer topiary is cute. Taking it all in stride. Your grafting work looks great, inspiration. I like your thoughts on not owning land.

chuckle. When we were last out, those nettles were maybe six inches tall?

The rain this spring has been pretty regular, allowing me to plant many things and let the rain water them in.

Your Silphium has grown like crazy since i was there the other day.

Misleading video image

Super cool thumbnail but what a shitty way to get it. We got into the 20’s but still have some cherries, I hope you haven’t lost too much. I swear we’re like six weeks early, autumn olives are already done flowering. Nuts.

Gosh darn it. :(

Thank you for the video and smells. Love your trees so beautiful. The weather will only be getting weirder. Must figure something out. Does your township allow rainwater collection? Wow the quince was stunning in the color and frost damage. So sorry for the losses. I have two bareroot Japanese heartnuts to plant and I'm making dead hedges for windbreaks. The wind is relentless here, so damaging. I am surprised to find so many trees and shrubs on the list for juglone tolerance. Are you planning a video later in the season on harvesting the hazelnuts and others, and maybe post a few recipes and suggestions for storage where applicable? Is it true that giving credit to the creator of the recipe is the proper way to make it legal and not intellectual infringement?

Beautiful orchard!

Loving how you think about planting enough for yourself and wildlife

Greetings fellow Michigander, I am planning hedges after a perimeter farm fence is installed, so a few years to go. Are you thinking of offering young trees for sale of your favorites?

Love your mixed plantings

Your garden always amazes me! I look forward to more tours this year

Vegetable garden is basically “grass, Minarda & Bullshit!” Klazzik Pizz quote 👏🏻

Looking good. My random thoughts follow. Amelanchier: for whatever reason commercial landscapers here have used tons of saskatoons. They are bulletproof which is really surprising since I think of them as a Pacific Northwest rainforest species. Drought tolerant, late flowering and short enough to pick most of them. If you can beat the birds. Flowering quince: I’ve been leaving things that seldom or never fruit like quince (fireblight) or Nanking cherry (frozen out most years) to feed bees that wake up too early almost every year now. Also saw Baltimore orioles munching the flowers for the nectar which was awesome. Sea buckthorn: grew buffalo berry at a previous home which I think but am far from certain is related. Absolutely grew like weeds, maybe a good substitute? Oh saskatoon seed is balky, only a small part germinate the first year. Like last time I planted 100 seeds, got 9 seedlings. But if you get cuttings they start fruiting at like a foot tall lol.

~ it looks great. I love the new entrance and the paths that you are doing! Keep up the great work Peach!~

Off to a great start! Have a wonderful season. 🌳

I know you posted this 2 years ago but I have a question. Have you come to a truce with power company? I have a right of way on my land that was mauled by their uneducated forestry division. Their “foresters” could not identify basic species or understand that shrubs are in fact shrubs. I raised a colossal stink with them so my property shows up on their maps as a property that needs a police escort. That was the solution offered by them to make sure they made contact with me before doing anything.

Dude I have been a piss-poor subscriber recently, preoccupied. But I’m wondering how premature your spring is. Apricots, non-native cherries always get fooled, but today even the goose plums are going full blast (swarming with bees and even a fritillary!), a month early. Naturally freezing temps in the forecast later this week. How goes it there?

Where and when was this PJ?

I hope you end up with good tasting persimmons. When I first arrived at the property I now own there was a persimmon tree, I think a fuyu variety loaded with fruit. I let the fruit get fully ripe and for whatever reason the tomato/apple hardness fruit was not pleasant to eat. I had tried a fuyu type persimmon before at a property that I was considering buying, but not for the persimmons which I wasn’t impressed with. I have tried a different variety persimmon, hachiya jelly like when ripe. That was a different story. I liked that fruit and I would consider buying the tree but I already have many fruit trees already. Though perhaps predator birds wouldn’t be too much of a problem as the fuyu tree fruit wasn’t attacked too badly by birds. Most of the fruit trees where I live require nets to protect from birds. I know you grow hazelnuts and the 4 hazelnut trees seem to be liking the less than ideal soil. One of the four different varieties seems to be growing exponentially compared to the other 3. Because of the warming climate I only intend to grow 4 hazelnut trees, even though Bridgetown where I live experiences the coldest winter temperatures in my state of Western Australia. And because of the warming climate I’ve planted macadamia trees which can only prosper in a warmer climate, though 106F/41C forecast for Bridgetown tomorrow is a fair bit hotter than macadamia trees like it.

Привет Американцы🖐 Интересно было прочесть ваши коментарии , но меня больше интересует такой вредитель как мраморный клоп , есть-ли средства борьбы с этим вредителем ?

I'm surprised there's not more recent comments but stands out to me. Please upgrade me to this video. After having launched up before is at 1 hour and 15 minutes, About biodisal

I really like Roger but I don't remember him being on Gold Rush episodes all that much! Can someone tell me what episodes?

Lovely to see the 🇺🇸 chest nut tree ❤

Feel it's a shame to let that dark apple go to waste. Bet it would make great jelly. :)

Quince I pick when it's fully yellow. You can leave it on, but if you are going to risk deer damage, just pick 'em. I like setting them around the house as they smell great while they're softening.

Peta kills animals 🐕🐈🐾 is going to jail 🚔 boycott peta 👎🏻🚫

What is your preferred method of cooking the chestnuts? We have a few mature trees with plenty of production, but I tried baking to roast last year and they were disappointing. Really unhappy stomach afterwards so I'm not sure I cooked them long enough.
