Best of luck to you.

I'm sure you are aware of the variety of long-handled tools that are
available for pulling weeds, digging holes, cultivating, etc. There's
a good list of such tools available online at the Ergonica World of
Weeds website.

All plants want to grow and blossom. That's their mission in life. It
seems that our human destiny is to cultivate, consume and contain the
green world around us.

Gardening is good for you.

Perhaps a small Japanese Garden? About 10 feet by 10 feet. Set to
take advantage of borrowed scenery. Shrink the 10 X 10 by including a

hire a contractor for initial setup. But design it oneself. Very
important.

Best!

Yes, once all weeding is done and trash trees are gone (boy can birds
plant those things everywhere) I will call in a landscape architect
and tell him/her what I want. I didn't know it, but one of those
trees which just showed up is a fig! At least they're not all trash!
NO GRASS and wood decks, or composit wood is also fab. I can do
container gardening on the decks.

I still collect brugmansia's and datura's so those are all in huge 30
gallon containers.
