If something is not eating your plants, your garden isn’t part of the ecosystem.

Five years ago, this spot was a "green desert" for local wildlife – burning bushes and butterfly bushes ruled. Now? It's a thriving native haven! Get ready for a pollinator party in a few weeks when the Monarda and milkweed explode with color. From foreign to flourishing – that's the power of native plants! 🦋🐝 #NativeGardening #WildlifeHabitat #Transformation @plants @nativeplants #nativeplants

Little apricot tree 💮

ua: Дрібоньке, молодесеньке деревце колєровки 🌱
Позаяк лаштую собі садочка та квітника попід вікнами, гадаю, колєровка буде запашним та гарним доповненням.
Вирішив дописувати й українською, хоча ця мережа заточена на анґлійську здебільшого. А деколи й українською латинкою писатиму ☺️

Buckthorn trees (invasive in my region) I girdled at waist height last year. The top has died and the bottom is leafing out. I will remove all the new growth in a couple weeks. The top can be used as seasoned firewood and after a couple more years the roots will use up their remaining energy stores and the tree will die. I have planted American Hazelnut nearby to replace it. #SolarPunkSunday #SolarPunk #Gardening #NativeGardening
