***Official gardening, landscape and yardwork thread***
We had a 2014 gardening thread and another planting trees thread. Figured it would be better just to have a general thread to share knowledge about all things yards.

I've learned stuff about growing things here in the desert from people all around the country. Post pictures and share your knowledge!

I'm on a city lot so my backyard is the size of a postage stamp, so mostly potted stuff for right now.

New for this year are boxwoods in vertical planters. Going to shape them into spheres once they grow out. Mostly to try and hide my utilities.



Arbs from last year that that appear to be doing well. Not sure what the potted plant is but they love the direct sun and flower all summer.



Also grabbed a couple ferns that I'm not sure what to do with yet.



My homie Spruce Chen



Have some available space near my garage. I beta tested some Miss Kim lilacs back there last fall which performed well with fragrant blooms last month. So I plan to fill out that spot with more lilacs this fall. Thinking some native grass or ground cover around them to saturate the space.

Looks good man. Vertical planters can definitely be your friend. They look classy and can be moved to different spots in the yard or patio.

Lilacs are a great choice. Super resilient and always look great in the summer.

I assume you'd like to keep the grass pad as is with no intention of putting a tree in the middle of it.

Not sure what those trees are, but they're definitely developing some type of fruit. They're my neighbors and she no speaky the english. I love them though and plan to ask her daughter what they are next time she's over. I'll post pictures once Imgur un****s itself this morning.

Definitely plan to keep the grass pad as is. Its the perfect size to easily maintain. I did get a notice from the city that the shitting looking green space in front of my house between the sidewalk and the city is eligible for a tree. So they're going to come plant something, probably an oak or maple some time this summer. I'm happy about that for the shade potential and I don't feel like upkeeping the grass there because a) I don't own it and b) shitty dog owners that don't pick up their dog's shit would ruin it anyway.

EDIT: Google indicates its a dwarf mango tree

Mangos can’t tolerate freezing so unless it’s moved every winter, it’s probably a stone fruit like peach, plum or nectarine.

But let me know!

They're definitely in ground trees but I don't recall them producing any fruit last year. They sure do look like mini mangos, but maybe a nectarine??

I love to garden. I'm not into growing veggies or herbs, but I love maintaining plants and flowers in pots and my beds. I'd manicure it all day everyday if I had the time. It's extremely satisfyingly to me.

Can’t be mangos, I promise. I have to protect my mangos when it hits 35 degrees here.

Nectarine is my guess. Super healthy trees they have! Love that look.

I can’t recall the strain my wife is growing. First time growing so it’s a learning process. I think the yellowing was from too much sun when it hit 110 here the other day.
