Gunnar, I think you have everybody on the List drooling with the description
of your terraces. You not only have more room that way, you should have
good drainage, too. Though there is the question of the acid soil...well,
maybe it's just not going to be TB heaven.
Barb in Santa Fe, on a very flat lot, with not a speck of acid soil in sight
(though I'm beginning to get down closer to neutral in spots after 14 years
of compost).
