Gardening is blooming now.

@doubletee I’m also curious about the phone camera setting your wife used for the beautiful flower pics you posted a couple days ago. Any tips you (she) can share?

[doubletee]

Sorry guys. It was portrait and vibrant warm setting. Good for macro and flower shots. Added the settings below, hope it helps.

Butterfly weed in full bloom.

This seems like the appropriate place to post this - probably my favorite bounty of late spring are mulberries. I planted this Pakistan Mulberry tree ~ 3 yrs ago and it is prolific I have another variety that hits late summer

I admitted defeat and finally hired out the last of the yard cleanup from the flood last winter. We needed appx 6" of compacted dirt/wood chips removed from around our raised beds and fresh chips layed down

New garden blooming a lot this year.

Got a decent shot of some wildflowers on a walk at our local nature center last week.

Anyone have any good tips on what to use as filler in large planters when I don't want to fill the whole thing with soil?

[SKT]

@TENDREL I’ve always used large rocks and gravel to eat up space but may not be practical depending on size of planter.

[GraemeE]

@TENDREL I've used stacked log sections in the past but that's kind of dependant on whether there is a tree that needs to come down on your property or nearby

[TENDREL]

Sweet thanks for the suggestions. Some good things to think about. Will post some pics when I'm on the other end of this cactus garden project....

@goosehd what type of chili are those?

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago Carolina Reapers and Ghost Peppers...just a little bit of spice there

@Mister_Brue Extremely hot!!!

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd why waste your time on the pussy stuff?

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago That reaper was the one that hurt me last week and was the first time I've ever regretted eating a whole uncooked pepper.
