Last year I planted two peaches and three apples. This year I finally started putting in the guild. This I my first endeavor at permaculture. I started with my apples.
The apple guild will consist of three trees in a slight V configuration. They are located in such a way as to screen my septic mound from view. Currently, only the center tree has plants around it. The guild is going to encompass all three trees. I would like to plant something further up the mound behind the trees (north side), but am not sure what to place there.
The peach guild is the one I am most pleased with. After putting this one together I realize that I planted the plants in the apple guild too close to the tree and each other. In both guilds are bee balm, yarrow, fennel, garlic chive and dill. Comfrey, nasturtium and vetch will be added as I get them. In this guild I also plan on planting a goumi.
I would love to see other people's tree guilds, whether new or established.
Thanks.
