I started by cutting the grass as low as potential . Then added alayer of cardboard topped with devoid mulch from the county heavy watercollection . Then free logs to make several beds surrounded by freestepping stones .

Beds are filled with mushroom-shaped cloud compost , peat moss , andsome other various compost / manure .

This is going to be an utterly endearing garden . I ca n’t think of a better use for the end of backyard .

If you ’ve not had horticulture success before , I commend starting with a few dead - simple crop : mulberry tree , yard - prospicient noggin , chaya , loquat tree , honeyed potatoes , Seminole pumpkin ( verify you have LOTS of distance ) , bush beans , kale and mustard greens . Throw in a few red-hot peppers for variety and peradventure a Japanese persimmon and you ’re go to have success . Most of those will do well even if you ’re a total amateur .

Just be sure to feed the soil first … and then the ground will feed you .

Good oeuvre , fellow nurseryman . I love it .
