Like the old saying goes, “the best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, the next best time is today.” No point in waiting until you’ve built the house to plant trees.
If you don’t want to mow you might want to plant something with a good canopy and/or something acidic enough to preclude grass from growing. Otherwise, you’ll find your still mowing, but this time having to do so around trees.
Yeah, good point. We are planning on doing a garden once we are living there. Also, we want to do a large section for a wildflower patch, maybe with a few walking paths mowed in between and around. I think that would be nice to look at and would help me mow less.
My understanding is Sycamores like it wet, so we find them here in river valleys and such. So I'm really surprised to see one trying to grown in the gravel beside the road!

That’s kind of our thinking also. And we have trees around. Need more!
@@dirttodone865 there’s never too many trees

They grow up in between rocks here also! They do like the wet here too. You see them near rivers and creeks.
The birds carry the little seeds and then drop them or poop them out
What state are you in? I think we would get in a lot of trouble doing that here in FL.
Well, I don't want to get in trouble now, do I?
