Compound Interest

In the 10% post I mentioned we were expanding the 'Grassland' area out by the back pond.

This image shows the extent of last years 'unmowed' area, as it looked one morning this past week.


Recall last year it had a nice crop of wildflowers.


The above image shows the expansion area, delineated by more of those fallen branches, close to doubling in size. We've planted a few more things back there, stuff we got at the NJ Native Plant Society Annual Meeting, and will probably plant some more native grasses. But mostly we're just going to let it be.

It will be fun to see what shows up.

And I won't mind not having to mow back there.
