I am landscaping a mountaintop home, with three things in mind.
1. I need to get plants that are free or cheap, and which readily spread, because my budget is non-existent right now.
2. To use as many local, natural plants as possible for the cost efficiency, as well as my personal beliefs.
3.To make the 15 year old double wide that is our home look like it belongs, and is part of the mountain landscape.
The challenges are:
1. The home is a relatively modern thing, and sticks out on the land in sore thumb fashion. Making it part of the land will be difficult.
2.Finding the right wild plants for the right landscape areas and not killing them all in the process.
3. Getting it all done, physically.
Plus we need to maintain our vegetable garden and get the most from that this season.
I will bring photos into the blog as they are taken.
