We are Zone 5a in Canada, which is roughly Zone 4 USDA.
They aren’t all native, but we try to choose native plants when we buy new. We inherited many when we moved here.
We weed and I occasionally add fertilizer in the form of alfalfa meal. We haven’t quite figured out how to get our compost hot enough, but I hope to add some in the fall as well.
I’m so jealous of all the space you have, beautiful plants in a beautiful space.
Thank you! This will be our 4th summer living here and we’re finally feeling like the hard work is paying off.
The house itself is a shit show, but 🤷♀️
For me the house is part of the garden. And zoo. Just have to do the best with the space/time/ability that you have and eventually you’ll find a balance that works.
“Non-edible” then first pic posted is a hosta XD
Maybe somebody peed on it.
