Ep 70. Planting a Steep Woodland Garden

In this episode, we chat about Stephanie's severe back slope overlooking a magnificent forest - a dilemma for those who wish to meander amongst the trees. That's where a steep woodland garden comes in.We talk about perfect plants for a hillside woodland garden, the delightful day of digging them in, and tips on planting on a hillside.We wrap up the episode with a story about a cherished Red Maple planted by my sister on a hillside when our dear Mom was living with her. It endured severe damage and recovered after becoming half a tree. Plants genuinely are resilient, especially with the love and admiration of caregivers. Link to Related Stories:Planting a Steep Woodland GardenProper Planting Hillside ***Kind listeners, I'd love to hear about your garden and nature stories.
