2026 Fringe Trees

 Are in bloom!

White Fringe Tree

Japanese Fringe shrub

These are becoming my favorite trees

Maple Seeds!

 This is why our gardens aren't just open to 

public so you can just visit.  We never know

what they yard will look like in the morning!

 It should look like this:

3 hours to vac up the garden beds and 

deck.  Then re-mowing the north lawn

again

5/3&4/2026

Again same as above.

5/5&6/2026

More of the above!  Hopefully

with the wind tonight they will

all be down.  Back to the roof

in the morning.

5/7&8/2026

More of the above and still

coming down.

The third week of more of the

above, my daily task to remove

all the seeds and less ants.

off the yard and the ants away.

This was given back to us when we purchased
