New post up today at chickadeegardens.com about the evolution of a (rather large 300' long) garden border over the last 10 years. Gardening is an adventure, you never know for sure how it will evolve but it's fun to try new ideas. ๐ŸŒฑ

New post up today at chickadeegardens.com highlighting a recent presentation about what has worked in the garden after 10 years on this land - and what has not.

beautiful...and yes, thank you for the correction, you know what I meant ๐Ÿ˜†

OMG so true! Really, as one who works at a nursery (Portland area), helping customers with nuanced sites will never replace AI. And yes, it's fun to wander and discover new plants in person. Developing skills as a gardener is so fun and rewarding. Talk to your nursery employees, they can help!
