86 that feels like 90F
15% humidity
Weeks away from spring equinox in SoCal

Feeling quite low. Harvested some of the winter grown sunflower heads. Will spend some time saving the seeds

#zone10b #gardening #seeds

Three large sunflower heads. Two with dark brown seeds, one with gray. A set of hand pruners across one of the face to show scale. The heads are wider than an outstretched hand. Heads are on a wooden table with a dog puzzle feeder & potted plants

@kellyromanych On the plus side, you have active bees and flowering plants for them to feed off.

And Geo has a puzzle feeder. 💚

@Broadfork I'm thinking the backyard area may go to meadow & orchard. Likely to move the crops out front.

@kellyromanych Changes due to/for Geo, changing climate or just wanting to change things up? Meadow and orchard sound wonderful anyway.

I love seeing when someone makes their front garden a plant paradise but it’s rare to see here.

I also like permaculture zonal areas when it comes to deciding what goes where.

@Broadfork pretty much all those reasons. The lot is an unusual shape. So between utility lines, shadows from house, and being in alluvial fan area. It's a challenge.

@kellyromanych Exciting challenge: a garden makeover with a quirky layout. And Geo will love it.
