Heart of the Garden

🦋 Butterfly bush is not good for butterflies. Sorry. You had good intentions.

🍁 Leaves are supposed to fall on the ground. Otherwise we’d have no dirt and be standing on lava.

🌱 Wood mulch is for walking paths and establishing new plants, not permanent ground cover. Would you ever visit a mulch garden?

🌿 The most effective mulch is plants.

🟩 Lawns are basically 1980s wall-to-wall carpet. And not in a fun vintage way.

☠️ What’s the tackiest and most expensive lawn ornament? A yellow poison flag.

🚬 Gas powered leaf blowers are going the way of the cigarette and lead paint, and will be really uncool within the next decade. *side bar: they’re uncool now. 🤗

And now here’s a pretty May basket I made! 🌸🌼🌺
