From the street my house looks abandoned but luckily I’m not keeping up with the Joneses
Love seeing nature reclaim a space!
My country’s capital has a marketing campaign going on for this! Mostly because they’re the 2023 European Green Capital (and unfortunately one of the least green cities of our country, but oh well, they’re improving).
Comes with a searchable database of plants based on your soil, light availability and other needs, and their value for pollination and everything.
I can smell it haha. That fresh plant and earth smell mmm
Looks so nice and a relaxing sight too, makes me wish I had a garden. Maybe some day I can do the same.
Looks nice.
I do mow, but it’s more like making hay - when the plants have grown tall, and most varieties have managed to bloom. I also try to de-synchronize it from neigbours’s activities, so the landscape would never be the same in every direction.
Also, mowing peppermint and dandelions is taboo in my yard. Peppermint blooms very long and repels mosquitos, while attracting lots of other bugs to drink nectar. Dandelions are just nice to look at, so I don’t do anything until they are “ready to fly”.
If I didn’t cut hay at all, I would get Artemisia growing here and unfortunately their pollen can ruin a week for me.
