Our neighbors have a totally different view than we do of what a garden should look like. We like it green and generous and – according to others – overgrown.

What others term weeds, we like and nurture. Some examples:

Nettles attract butterflies. They’re also nutritious.

Dandelions are lovely, cheerful little suns. They’re staying.

If you don’t agree, consider this: If you don’t like our garden, stay away and look away. We don’t bother you about yours.

Our garden looks this way because we like it. So now you know.
