New mulberries on the mulberry! + updates

I MUST put this tree in the ground, and soon.


Update 25 Sept 2018 -  Look! Look! They're ripening!



They were beautifully sweet.



Front door look #1

I suppose it's coming together, but oh so slow for me. I want that white climbing rose (lower right of door/path) to grow up and around the side of the house. It will look good when in flower, especially.
I need more topsoil and lawn here too. Some flowers on each side of the pathway would look nice too. I am tossing up between a mixture of tiny mondo grass and petunias. I think I need to move the other climbing rose to this location too, so that there is a mixture of pink and white.



Aldi's is selling these standard ficus plants on this coming Wednesday for just under $30. I need one for the other side of the front door.

19 Sept 2018: I bought one this morning! 
They had ficus standards and lilly-pilly's, but the others I have are ficus, so I stuck with that.

Anne also bought this wee thing for me - not sure yet how big it is. It's a fake but I admired the one she had on her outside garden table, and now have one too. 
I have a number of fake greenery things in the garden and they look just fine with everything else.

And here it is, in my home:
