Anyone else ready to exterminate the wild life? Or is that just me? 🥲 My poor carrots 💔

Turks cap is such an interesting and beautiful plant. The flowers are not only pollinators (birds, butterflies & bees) but are completely edible for humans too! Another fantastic use is to crush and/or infuse the leaves, creating an emollient that moisturizes skin, calms inflammation and heals sores/burns. Plant power! 🌺

Hi all I have a well-established little lime hydrangea tree that was damaged in a storm last year. What’s left is a really odd shape so I’d like to try and lob it off; 1-turning the tree into more of a bush and 2-attempting to propagate the cutting. Anyone have any advice on how to- when to do this? Thanks in advance!

Look at my new guy “Doc”! He was removed from an ABSOLUTE PARADISE of a garden & I happened to be at the right place at the right time😎

My wild roses 🌹 Now that I’ve been able to get some plants routinely thriving indoors and on my patio for the past year I’m starting to feel confident 😳 the woman who owned my home for years with her family before us was an avid gardener. I have her rose bushes still on the side of my home. And I don’t do anything to them. Nothing. Well I bought myself a pair of rose pruning gloves and shears to prune bushes and pruned away this morning. Not sure if I pruned enough. Also there is one really long branch where the leaves are shaped weird and not like a rose. I can see she is sick so I tried to cut the dead and sick pieces away. What else can I do to help her? Granted it’s about to be fall and she will hibernate over the winter but I would like to set her up to bloom next year. Thanks for any advice you can share. 💚💚💚
