I've found some more gooseberries and two or more red currants

[conuly]

All still alive and bearing their tags.

On the one hand, I'm glad to see them - we all like gooseberries and red currants, they're hard to find in the US and pricey when you do make the trip to the farmer's market to get them, and they represent, I think, the last big things my mother put in the dirt before her mobility sharply declined and she was limited to the herb garden.

On the other hand, I had plans for that patch of dirt and it didn't involve pre-existing bushes. You know, we used to have barberries in the front. I wonder if I could uproot all these little guys now and put them there. Hm.

If they haven't leafed out yet, chances are better than if they have.

Think about where they'll get enough sun to fruit.

When I first read this post, I thought it was about Stardew Valley ^_^

Hm. Probably better keep them where they are.

Maybe with a mod, but those are not base game crops.

When we inheritted my Mother's Aunt's house, it took her years to identify all the plants....
