I can’t get over how cold climate, northern hemisphere gardens go from barely anything in the garden in winter to that much abundance in the late spring & summer. How do that many plants hide in the soil just waiting to appear? An amazing transformation.
Congratulations to 2000 subscribers!! You deserve so many more! I don't know why you keep telling us, that there are so many weeds? We can't see that on the videos! Everything looks green and full of flowers. 😂 About two years ago I weeded and weeded and weeeeeeeeeded for hours in the bed next to the street and one of the neighbors wandered by several times that day, and when he went past in the evening, he said: "What have you done all day, it looks just like this morning!" He looked REALLY confused, when I said "Thank you for the compliment! That is exactly how it should be looking!"🤣🤣🤣 He is one of the "the lawn can not be higher then 2 centimeters and there have to be sharp edges between that lawn and the pavers... He must have expected to find it all cut to the ground but, nope. Still looked like the wild jungle minus a huge heap of nettles, thistles, bindweed and comfrey - placed as mulch under the trees, shrubs and flowers... This year I have so much more mulch 🙃🙂🙃 because I also have to cut back flowers to be able to find the pathways. Not everywhere, yet - my food forest is only half as old as yours, but in some places... selfsown flowers in the paths and running strawberriies and raspberries... BTW the raspberries: mine are on the lowest and therefore wettest spot in my garden but they seem to love it there. I put about three to for bigbacks of leaves between my three rows. Or last fall it was almost half of one of those huge rolls of hay... the soil creatures are soooo hungry 😆
Thank you so much Martina!! I am so grateful to everyone who wants to follow the garden :) I totally agree with you regarding weeding, I think it matters less than we think - another example of needless doing..... I do want to take out some of the stinging nettles, sticky willies, bindweed, some grasses and stuff like that because they smother the other plants. And the comfrey falls on top of everything else like you say, and if I take them out now, I think the second flowering is beneficial for the insects. My pathways are also "illegal nurseries" of extra flowers, herbs and strawberries - ready to be given away or planted somewhere else - such natural abundance :)
It’s just stunning! Glad you saw the ‘Honesty’ comment! I nearly fell out the bath 😂 The 2m grass you can’t remember the name of is Stipa Gigantissima . Thanks for another lovely video xxx
