Hi @Jess,

Here are some photos and work I did in this area. Before starting seeds and propagation I thought it was important to clear space first the greenhouse was impossible to work in, and blocking all the light. I said to @Shanti that this is a good idea because you have so much garden space it can help create more plants.

Also wanted to suggest a different compost pile location as this area could be a great garden space.
 I agree, 100% keeping the lake view. I even think some light pruning and shaping in this area, without removing anything major, could open up more of the volcano view and look better.
 

  • Níspero question: Is it possible to grow níspero as a pruned orchard tree? Yes it can definitely be trained and pruned. I also have some other tree options if you’d like, but it’s great to know you like this one.

  • Ground cover:  We can definitely propagate this ground cover legume you like. We can just double check on this one.

  • Yess with Flowers & grasses: The area where the lower left compost currently is can absolutely be planted with flowers and grasses. I included plenty of grasses and herbaceous perennials in the plant list.

I’d love to set up a video call sometime there’s so much to explain, would also be a good time to discuss volunteer hours per day.

Thanks so much,
Raquel
