BLOOD, SWEAT, AND...😅..................................NORTHWEST ADVENTURES! 😀
Blood, Sweat, and………😅
“Silvertop, we have babies, lots of babies! “ 🥰
I was going to mow the front yard, that’s when the Mrs spotted baby Bloodgood Japanese Maple trees………EVERYWHERE! 😊
The mature Bloodgood tree in our front yard has been dropping crimson red “helicopter seeds”, and throughout the lawn you could see tiny red leafed trees, just barely as tall as the lawn!
“ Silvertop you can’t mow! “ 🤔
That was a week ago, with the heavy rains, the babies weren’t going anywhere soon……..
Silvertop started checking chores off today’s “To do list”.
The last thing today was relocating these babies!😇
Liz told me not to worry, SHE would crawl around the front yard and dig up the trees…………….😮
Guys, if you can’t read between the lines with what the Mrs is saying here, you are in deep trouble with your Lady …….Lol!😇😍
I strapped on my knee pads, grabbed a small garden trowel, and started searching carefully for Bloodgood trees!
I found the best method to extracting these trees, was to take a “plug” out with each tree!
Fifteen divots Silvertop created in the front lawn!🙄
Fifteen baby Bloodgood’s rescued today!🤗
Hmmm……. the lawn will recover…..
Soon Silvertop will be mowing more than he wants to anyway…..Lol!😅
The tree nursery has now expanded, from only pine trees, to now include baby ornamental trees!
“Grow little trees, soon you will be as big as the tall trees in the Mountains! “🤗
“Liz, where are we eventually going to plant fifteen Japanese Maple trees Lol? “ 🥰
Happy weekend everyone, the Sunshine is back!😎
Till tomorrow Silvertop Mike 😊
Had it not rained and had I not had to work, I would have gladly crawled around and dug them up. Perhaps YOU should go play optician and I'll stay home dear!😁💟
🥰
Comment of the day! 😄
Sounds like you will both be retired soon and opening your own plant nursery!
lol…..that sounds like fun, especially the retired part!😊
Lol! We've always grown trees!🍁🌿🌲🌳
Great story and wonderful pictures
Thank you I hope these “babies” do well!😊
excited to see your backyard filled with maple trees. that would probably take years bur still exciting. those turn red in autumn, right?
These Japanese Maples stay a beautiful red color all summer!😊
Years down the road they will be impressive!
woah! that makes it even more impressive if they stay red all through summer. fiery backyard illusion.
so so many years down the road
I need to collect more seeds, it will be very impressive someday Lol😊
good luck mate! you always have your ever reliable mature tree there.
Absolutely correct, we have three of these mature Japanese maple trees already!😀
So you are growing some Japanese loodleaf tree? They should grow beautiful!
Great job!
We have three mature Japanese and maple trees, and now lots of babies!😀
Wow, I can imagine how the spot will look down the line... fiery red!!!
I did not know that was how you propagated Japanese Maple!
I learned something new today!
