@Algot And with our list we prove that someone with seemingly no mutual interests can be great to follow. So glad I ran into you Algot!

@Tdorey @mattcropp

Of course!

And the beauty of the system is that it's going to be your choice whether the follow continues for a day or a decade.

I was thinking why #rootbeer 😂

@Tdorey @Algot @mattcropp Homemade #rootbeer can be really good, so thinking there could be rootbeer connoisseurs. If you like #weeds, do you pull them out?

@sundilu @Tdorey @mattcropp

I pull weeds when they encroach on the delicate, uncompetitive ornamentals.

It is difficult to be effective, though. Weeds grow better than the privileged plantings.

@mattcropp @Tdorey @sundilu

For what it is worth, I try to plant wildflowers when I can, native ground cover, if possible.

One of my favorite encroaching locals is chicory. https://mastodon.cloud/media/yadi9GBJod-6UoSKHJI

@Algot @mattcropp @Tdorey I do have a love for wildflowers. Especially because many look delicate.
@Algot @mattcropp @Tdorey @sundilu I'd say, that's worth a lot, Algot!

@sundilu @Tdorey @mattcropp

Weeds are opportunists.
Weeds fill empty, unloved, unwanted spaces.
Weeds can be absolutely beautiful.
