Just got and planted my Christmas gift from work yesterday. A dwarf pear tree, can't wait for spring to plant lavender, rosemary, strawberry and other flowers around it. But the rest of the garden is still a bit messy

I've been slowly learning things like this as I've been planting. Just trying to share the wisdom!
Another thing I learned is that you shouldn't prune stone fruit trees (peach, plum, etc) until late winter/early spring because it makes them susceptible to disease. I believe it's fine to prune pomme fruit trees (apple, pear) whenever though because they always have flowing sap (or something like that)
