Wondering what suburban wildlife gardens can look like? This is the north-east corner of my own garden with the various native plants starting to emerge from the ground - they will mostly get much taller with flowers in mid to late summer. The two blossom-laden trees are, on the left, Amelanchier canadansis and the the right of it, sour cherry. Once this was a traditional lawn but it didn’t welcome the three Bs (bees, birds, butterflies).
I write more about natural native gardening and how to build a garden pond and waterfall that draws in the birds, on my other Substack if you are interested … here is a link. The article in question will be live at 11am this Sunday morning.
And here is a link without the subscribe option if you want to poke around first:
Astonishingly beautiful!
