How to nurture volunteer blackberries in my raised bed?


I have a bunch of 4×4 raised beds in my yard. One of them has a cluster of volunteer blackberries growing in one corner of it this year! It’s semi-shady and annoying to grow anything else in, so maybe I’ll have a raised blackberry bush in there instead. Is this a good idea? Should I just tip-layer the canes and let it go to town, or try to trellis?

The First Peony – ‘Shima-Nishiki’

The Tree Peony ‘Shima-Nishiki’ is the first to bloom. The name means “fire flame” in Japanese, an apt title to describe the red blooms striped with white. Occasionally, there are solid red blooms.
Every year this peony gets better and seemingly overnight, the puny-looking bare branches are suddenly fleshed out with a tremendous profusion of leaves. The bush is dense, forming a 4 ft. mound. Our plant resides at the top of one of the terrace beds in back where it gets some morning sun and dappled sun (mostly shade) for the remainder of the day. 
We have many peonies in the garden and they all came from Adelman Peony Gardens in Salem, Oregon. It is worth a drive just to see their beautiful display garden in May.

Help Reforest the Planet – I’ll Plant a Tree for You 🌳


This year, I joined a project that’s like a friendly chain letter — but instead of cluttering your inbox, we’re cluttering the planet with trees. 🌱

Every time someone joins through me, I pledge to plant another tree — and they can invite others too. It’s a growing community, reforesting the planet one connection at a time. 🌍

Our goal is simple: plant One Trillion Trees together. If you’re curious, I’ve shared the link in the comments!
