RE: Hugelkultur an Old Permaculture Technique, Gaining Popularity on Today's Homesteads
The trees are big out here, alright! I have a sequoia in my yard that's too big for 3 people to reach around. Conifers do a lot of their growing in cool temperatures, that coincide with our rainy seasons, including warm days in winter. So they have a long growing season , much longer than the deciduous trees.
