    here's my yard. totally organically grown - except when we have a wasp nest... hence the toxins on the table - we had to remove a nasty nest after they attacked me while i was weeding...

    I bet you have someone on your block or the inspector that jealouse of you and your yard;) .Contact an attorney and ask him about this crap if its legal or not. Maybe the next bee hive you should leave until they come back to harrass you about your yard :P

    I'm going to see where it all goes first... hoping with some good old fashioned spell work and meditation... these dark clouds will clear to a beautiful bright sky.

    fight it....who is this "inspector" telling you what to do on YOUR property? If he wants to fine you....take it to court with those pictures....and you can do plenty to build your case. When it's over and done with, put the play house back out with a sign that says......*censored*.....j/k...but yeah what a load. You have a beautiful yard. don't fall victem to "well i don't like it so you have to change it"

    It reminds me of my landlord..."well, I don't like snakes, so no you can't keep it...."

    That is absurd; your yard is gorgeous. Much better than the horrific flat beds of artificial looking grass (chemically treated) that most people find beautiful.

    :confused:

    I would *LOVE* to have your back yard, it's stunning! Just beautiful! It's attitudes like your neighbor's that makes me hate Home Owners Associations. Everything must look uniform, the same, and boring as all get out. Bleh. Up their nose with a rubber hose, there's nothing wrong at all with having a beautiful lush naturalistic back yard. Some of us actually *like* nature.

    Here's my opinion, great yard... get a few local nursery people or owners, plant society people out to take a look at your yard.


    Get a few written statements from them as to what they think of it and the plants, names of the plants etc. I bet that "two bit jack boot wearing" inspector doesn't even know what your plants names are. Then you have a nice endorsed natural back yard setting! Take that to court.... so a judge can see these plants are being taken care of as they should be!

    chances are you guys don't know who brian minter is... but he's the god of gardening out here. he's assisted us greatly with creating a natural environment in our yard... so i'm not overly worried... it's more the stress of having to deal with this.

    i sure appreciate all your support though... thank you all SOOOOOO much
