  • Hi neighbor! Believe it or not, I walk by your house all the time and always tell my wife I love it :)

    As for what you can do, I know you said you’re southern exposure with a lot of sun, but I can tell you that I would consider your home and even that front mostly shaded.

    Now is a good time to mulch with some good compost. We’ve been seeing good results with just getting some black kow from Home Depot.

    Additionally, I was just there yesterday, but The Farm in Green Village (by Morristown) is open and they’ll soon have plants in their shade section. Very helpful people there too. Definitely worth the trip.

    Also, we have a ton of deer, and your arborvitae look like tell-tale signs of deer nibbling. They can’t reach the top so just eat out the middle. I got a motion detected sprinkler to scare them off a few years ago and that seems to help.

    Small world, especially on Lemmy!
