Trees

So it's been about 2 months since I planted them, but I finally have some trees planted in my back yard. I took these pictures just after planting them. Since my drip system is not working right now, I have to water them every day. But it's so cool to see the result of all the hard work. I can see that they are growing already, and when I water them at night, they are much greener the next morning. It's a lot of fun.

I can't wait until we have lemons coming in on our lemon tree!
If I can only get my grass growing too!!!
This tree is called a "sissoo". It can get pretty big and will be a great shade tree.

This is our lemon tree! Still small, but it has already grown. I love the smell of citrus trees.






The flowers smell nice too!

OK... I remembered the stuff to make the grass grow better. It is called turf builder. Elliott told me about it and it has sure worked in our yard. I love your pictures and trees.... I love you too.
