OD '22 The Buds: Tall Tall Tress

Thanks guys! That’s a great idea Chubby. Was lucky with pretty good rain this season but was carrying a lot of water down in the early-mid summer when it was kind of dry. First try in this particular spot. Little un-tamed strip on a slope. Overgrown for years with mostly ferns and vines. The ground is covered with  a thick carpet of thatch built up over who knows how many decades of wild growth. At first I wondered if the rain would ever get through all that to the ground but it seemed to hold water deep pretty good!

Nice to connect with someone else growing on an incline :) One thing I noticed was that the plants like the ones pictured, a little further up the slope, grew mostly straight up, ignoring the slant, while one further down grew on an angle, perpendicular to the ground. That one almost blew over in a storm and needed support.

Thanks again!
