I nurtured my little seedlings and sang to them to make them grow better… I promise it’s a thing!

I would like to point out that many of these wild flowers and shrubs would not exactly be encouraged into a garden whether it’s a wild natural garden or not.

I don’t know why the Geranium isn’t the flower of Spain because they are so popular here and really thrive both in the garden and in pots.

Don’t prune citrus trees, they are just starting to ripen so waiting until they have been harvested.
