Nice variety man and are you using some sort of irrigation for those or just hand watering?

Just hand watering. Thats why they’re neglected. When it’s 100+ and humid here constantly it gets to be a bit much. Eventually I’ll hook dripper lines up once everything is in and mulched.

Oh wow that’s quite the task but got to do what you got to do. Mother nature has not been helping out much lately just bone dry… I’m in the deep South but not far enough to really grow citrus and related fruits very well. Plus we have tons of mature trees hogging the soil and shading

No climbing roses. Neighborhood is lame or I would’ve put a chain fence in and had climbing roses cover it. A couple of my roses came with trellises in the pots, but they seem like bushes to me. The jasmine vines are Star and the bushes are Asian.

I need to figure out a watering system also so I dont need to water with a hose wand everyday.

Drippers automated are awesome, but I don’t know what you all have to do when it gets super cold. I tried being lazy and just using sprinklers, but after two $400+ water bills I went back to using the wand. Haha.
