Strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries in our yard are all setting fruit.  The blueberry bushes seem to be alive, yet not terribly interested in doing anything.

similar stuff; nothing terribly exciting and no pics )

The blueberry bushes seem to be alive, yet not terribly interested in doing anything... the peonies look like they're going to be spectacular... The various irises and lilies that I've transplanted the past few years all seem to be doing well yet may want to be thinned yet again.

huh. wow. a lot going on very similar to my yard. :D

did you try laying down black plastic over the site after digging out the poison ivy? i have an area where it's come back (just tiny shoots) more than once and wondering if i'll need to do that. but the black plastic will eventually kill everything.

It came back in an area where there are too many trees to successfully use plastic. I may try killing it with vinegar while it's still small.
