DesperateDan posted:Thankyou! Anything in particular you want it spent on? You probably know best  - feel free to use it as you like! I am enjoying all your adventures you report on here! (And this thread is what rekindled my gardening lust and lead me to spending much time in my garden in the last 1,5 years (as long as we are living in our house). The garden is small and it is totally different than your garden and especially the Five Acres - but I am feeding the birds, have put up some housing for wild bees, have restarted the compost heap, have planted a lot of (simple) plants, ... So - thanks!)

Why did you chop down the trees near the pond? (Honest question, not trying to throw shade... but that shade is now missing from the pond in the summer?)

Sorry for the situation with your dad. All the best to him, you, your family in a lovely situation. Looking forward to your plans over the next years. This thread brings me joy.

Still loving this thread! It's been a big inspiration to do more and more gardening (after we had some space to ourselves). Part of our garden just now:

DesperateDan posted:Looks fantastic- that some buddleia at the back there? Got some in my front garden I really need to clone over to the farm Yes, a dark violet buddleia (also called "butterfly lilac" here - a fitting name (even if it's not a lilac at all)).  Even some "Hummingbird hawk-moth" (Macroglossum stellatarum) Wiki have visited - a butterfly looking like hummingbird:  (Sorry for the bad image quality.) Next year, I will sow some Galium verum (lady's bedstraw or yellow bedstraw) as I learned this is the food for the caterpillars of the hawk-moth above (and it's a native plant around here). Other than the buddleias which have been taken over marginal spaces here and are considered quite invasive. But they stay in my garden.
