I planted two fruit trees today, down there on the "bank" on the eastern side of the pond... One Kasturi, and one Lalee Jewo. These are both related to mango's, but are hopefully more suited to our wet climate, and are probably more primitive relatives... I did this after getting a load of mulch from the dump. I mulched the trees in well, then planted peanut around them, and pineapple tops under them, in sort of crescents to catch mulch ala the Maya Mountain Research farm method, and them spread the mulch around in the spaces between. In the next couple of weeks we'll see how many weeds come through the mulch, we'd weed it, then we'll hit it hard with peanut seedlings...
