Gardening, landscaping and plants in general

That too, plus colour, scent, height, shape of the planting….

Snapped a few pics of the garden. WIP.

Very nice. Lucky to have those mature trees.
Have you considered some kind of structure for your seating area? Might work well….

Nice looking yard @mikebarhoot, I'm jealous of your oaks! I don't think my yard will ever stop being a work in progress so I understand how that goes.

most definately but not over the fire pit. the sky views are excelent and with NO night light pollution i wouldnt want to obstruct the views. the area to the side tho, i want to add a shop w a covered porch. some day.

OK. Didn't realise it was a fire pit! that is a nice size…
Great to have low levels of light pollution too, wish I had that.

Yes but for nostalgia rather than liking a particular tree for looks or whatever.
Horse chestnut or conker tree as we call them in the UK. Used to have conker fights with them and attempt to cheat by hardening them with questionable tactics passed on from brother to brother -
I hear that. We used to have acorn fights. Hurt like hell. Those horse chestnuts look worse though.
Most of my Major studies in college focused on forestry. I could post pictures of my favorites for days

As far as native trees go, I really like the Texas Madrone Trees (Arbutus xalapensis)

I had the opportunity to see some of the rainbow eucalyptus (Eucalyptus deglupta) last time I was in Costa Rica and they're an amazing exotic tree:

is there fungus among us?

This is a complete work in progress shot and it looks like crap right now but we have 3 rows of grapes. One row of ever-bearing raspberries and one row of golden raspberries. The three boxes will be full of perennial veggies and there’s kiwis planted along the large round trellis.

The three boxes will be full of perineal veggies
I really don't think you'll want to eat those.
(Usually, I try not to get pedantic, but that's just funny)
