I also live in a wooded, hilly, rather hot area. Not enough sun to grow much but the trees keep animals visiting or living here. Rabbits, deer, even coyotes and all kinds of birds visit regularly which annoys some neighbors but each has its role in nature. Keeping excessive volunteer plants away is a problem and cultivating others that are supposed to be shade loving is another. I am lucky to live in a neighborhood where people are not competitive about the "best grass" and just try to enjoy their own and others' gardening efforts.
I enjoyed looking at your pictures posted several years ago and am encouraged that my wooded area will als be as beautiful as yours. Thanks.
