Nice gardening project for you then! You've also got a nice big haul from your crops which is always satisfying seeing your hard work pull through, plus it's fresher. Shame about the others that didn't work well for you but hopefully you'll be able to try again next year and maybe it'll grow then, climate/weather willing.

Oh I loved it, it was great fun!

I'm very excited to plant more perennials in the spring, this year I started grapes, asparagus, and ground cherries (I've heard they reseed easily so basically perennial).

I want to do more in the spring, thinking blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, elderberries, goji berries, maybe currants, gooseberries, service berries, mulberry, cherry, pawpaw, persimmon, and apple.

I figure if even half of that does well, in a few years I'll be swimming in nightly berry desserts.

Maybe I'll just improve the soil in the annual beds for at least another year before trying them out again. We will see
