kssmith said: I have a big L-shaped bed in back yard and new addition has made it into a horseshoe or kind of like one. The next addition will be off the other end and i will have the trellis just about boxed in except for about 8 feet of open space to access the inner plants. I have about 100 daylilys in it right now. There is a wisteria climbing the trellis i have had for 8 years and it always blooms.
The hard part is getting rid of the grass and some clay from any new garden space. I can only load my trash bin to 335lbs. and clay is heavy as you all know so i have a clay pile in the corner of the yard. I may have time to get started on taking some more grass off but thats it, just 2 more.
I am getting some real nice cultivars and i hate to crowd them to only see that the best plant won. I want all of them to have the same chance at growth as much as possible. However, i could always pot some up for next springs garage sale and make more space. Maybe the new neighbors would let me rent some space. There is a nice raised bed next door big enough for 8 plants for sure. Hmm.


Hi. Does your clay respond well to addition of gypsum or a liquid that has the same effect? Here it is subsoil in many place, ie. clay shale. But the liquid Claybreaker makes it workable and u can actually pull out weeds which once were as if in cement. I used to get a lot of plasterboard where people were doing internal renos. It is a bit heavy and if it geets wet the effective ingredient is washed onto wherever u put it.
