Rebuilding two small lots for roses/Carlos Pueblo

 Rebuilding two small lots for roses/Carlos Pueblo

During last year's drought and recent foundation repairs, we have vacated two small lots in the backyard for rebuilding our rose garden., Of course, after that we must rebuild our lawn in the front yard and the backyard. Our home site is smaller than a quarter of an acre about 8,500 square feet. A two story house is sitting on it; therefore, some space is left for the lawn and some garden lots. Previous owner planted some flowers and bushes around the backyard. Now, I have gotten rid of debris from bushes and stumps. I get two small lots with the sunshine to grow roses.

We make some cuts from the original rose plants and stick branches to the ground to hope that we'll have some new plants coming out. We also bought 6 new rose plants to plant them outside of Amy's library so that she can enjoy the beautiful roses in the future. There is still space to grow a pair of the camellia. One of a pair does survive in the front yard and is blooming very well this year.

I have spread many seeds which I have collected throughout the year. I am pretty sure that I shall have some coming out later in the spring. I did have a small watermelon and a small pumpkin coming out last year and I was informed that both were not bear eatable fruits. It is always nice to view some crops growing out of our own yard.
It is not that easy to grow anything like a farmer; however, it is a good life to enjoy. Gardening can help us to be aware of the four seasons in a year.
